Verdict
The newcomers require monitoring in the betting but this looks an opportunity for AUTUMN SPLENDOUR to go one better than his promising debut when runner-up in a decent Nottingham maiden. Very green in the early stages that day, he came home strongly and rates a sure-fire improver with that experience under his belt. Mendoza confirmed he'd come on plenty for a pleasing debut when third in the Woodcote Stakes at Epsom and is a considerable threat to the Tate colt although the form of that Epsom contest has yet to be boosted. Model Guest wasn't beaten far on debut here, despite only beating one home, but Lorcan was tailed off on debut behind subsequent Coventry Stakes winner Calyx.
