Tolmount is the first foal of a Group 3 winner representing Godolphin while the $1.6 million purchase Tenbury Wells is out of a Grade 1 winner in the US. Yulong Gold Temple is related to high-class US sprinter Stormy Liberal and all three of the above are newcomers to note. Far Rockaway is dropped down in trip today after going close over 1m2f at Chelmsford and Pride Of America ran well over a furlong further here on his debut while Cottonopolis was placed over 7f at Brighton in August. But SCHMOOZIE showed a big improvement when third over a mile at Lingfield last time and she gets a speculative vote to come out best in this.
