SOLO QUEST (12) encountered a very smart prospect when 0.5L second at Great Yarmouth. Potential for that form could prove strong and he can only improve second up. The clear one to beat. MEDVEDEV (7) is a nicely bred son of Sea The Stars. Yard can ready one and he should prove well suited to this trip. Keep safe. ARKAT (3) is a sibling to two winners. This expensive purchase as a yearling should be primed for debut and looks set to give a bold showing. HIGH SUMMER (6) shaped with promise when 8L fourth debuting at Salisbury. Expected to take a big step forward and rates a genuine threat to all.

Having third race start. At debut, tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 8 at Newmarket (July) on August 7 over 1400m, 6 len behind Desert Castle carrying 60.5kg at $11. Last start got back early 5th of 7 at Sandown Park on September 16 over 1400m, 9 len behind El Morjan carrying 59kg at $10. Open to improvement so don't underestimate.

Had two starts to date. At big odds at debut, 7th of 11 at Newmarket (July) on August 14 over 1400m, 10 len behind Royal Instinct with 60.5kg at $26. Second-up ran last of 9 at Great Yarmouth on September 17 over 1800m, 11 len behind Wykehurst Park carrying 60.5kg at $41. Doubt he will trouble these.
