The Richard Hannon trained EUPATOR (4) showed promise when third on testing ground at Salisbury. This nicely-bred Persian King colt could improve plenty for that experience and might make the weight received from HOTT SHOTT (1) count with the latter mentioned a winner at Goodwood in August commanding respect back down in grade after finishing fifth in the 7f G3 Solario Stakes at Sandown. Charlie Appleby trains Blue Point newcomer MONTEZUMA (8) who makes the shortlist. Market support for AL SHABABI (2) on debut is to be noted.
