Autocrat showed some potential for Aidan O'Brien on testing ground in the autumn and Denis Hogan will find a race for him. Miami Thunder couldn't quite cope with the well-supported Stormy Entry on last month's debut but had the remainder well beaten. NEWS AT TEN attracted strong support over the trip three weeks ago but didn't get the run of the race, finishing strongly after failing to find a gap. Compensation awaits though Rhythm And Tyne was a close fourth and shouldn't be far away. Zero Mostel will improve from his run a month ago while Bitacora and Sound Of The Night have also shown potential. Joseph O'Brien saddles three newcomers and the market is best watched for clues.
