5/1
Has a few quirks (jinked and unseated rider when looking in control on second start) but has lots of ability, winning Group 2 Superlative at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in July and 1m Woodbine Grade 1 (firm) last month. This ground an unknown.

Picked up really well to become a rare first-time-out 2-y-o winner for the stable at Salisbury (7f) in June. Bettered that form when third in Solario at Sandown (7f, soft) and Champagne here (7f, good) since. Should be capable of even better now moving up to 1m.

Too Darn Hot colt who won maiden/novice events over 1m at Haydock on first 2 outings before chasing home Haffner in the Royal Lodge at Newmarket (1m, firm) 28 days ago. Smart prospect who is capable of better again.

All 4 outings over 7f at the Curragh, winning Group 3 Futurity in August. Not in the same form when seventh in the National Stakes there since but the stable had a few run poorly at that time. 1m should suit.

380,000 gns Lope De Vega who struck on his Salisbury debut (1m, good to soft) 23 days ago. Did it readily and has the potential for plenty of improvement but this is a big jump in class

Has improved in leaps and bounds, following easy 1m Punchestown maiden win last month with a defeat of City of Dubai and stablemate Drumbeat (won Newmarket Group 3 since) in Group 2 Beresford at the Curragh (1m, good to soft) 11 days later. Hard to beat with further progress very much on the cards.

Wootton Bassett colt who landed listed event at Gowran (1m, good) in August. Further improvement when second in Group 2 Champagne here (7f, good) and Group 3 Autumn at Newmarket (1m, good to soft; beaten neck) since. Open to further progress and may give stablemate Noble Exhibit most to do.

Forecasts

Noble Exhibit (11/8), Burning Up (5/1), Al Hudaiba (5/1), Sergei Diaghilev (13/2), Gran Dia (8/1), Giant Sequoia (11/1), Breacher (25/1)

Verdict

NOBLE EXHIBIT can become the third Aidan O'Brien-trained colt since 2021 to follow up victory in the Beresford at the Curragh with a win in the final Group 1 of the season in Britain. Stablemate Sergei Diaghilev can follow him home ahead of Karl Burke's Royal Lodge runner-up Burning Up.
