Brian Meehan is delighted with the condition of Red Rocks and Radiohead ahead of their respective challenges at the Breeders' Cup this weekend.

Red Rocks will bid for a second Breeders' Cup Turf success having landed the Grade One prize at Churchill Downs in 2006, while Norfolk Stakes winner Radiohead takes his chance in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile.

Meehan led out his two hopes on horseback, and said: "It all went well. They did some light work on the main track and they don't need to do a lot."

With Frankie Dettori now on Dar Re Mi in the Turf, Meehan will need a new partner for Red Rocks.

He added: "Martin Dwyer will ride Radiohead at the weekend and we're hoping to get Julien Leparoux to ride Red Rocks.

"The Cumberland Lodge will have put Red Rocks straight as he needed the run.

"He was very heavy that day and was carrying condition. He blew up in the closing stages and if he hadn't, I think he would have bolted up.

"He's coming here a fresh horse, which might give him an advantage with the horses that ran in the Arc.

"The two-year-old travelled particularly well. The trip should be fine for him. He would have won the Middle Park had it been over seven furlongs.

"He might canter round the bend at some point this week and we might put him through the stalls as well as he's never been in with a handler."
