One Cool Cat's brother AFRICAN CAT should make progress this season though his second behind Money Trader in a modest maiden at Naas in July hardly set the pulse racing. Jemblatt just failed to catch Miss Velocity on his return to action over the C&D last month and has fitness on his side while Ger Lyons' newcomer Meydan Classic is related to several winners and is worth keeping an eye on in the market. Royal Procession produced an improved effort over the C&D last month and should have no problems making further progress.
