Autumn Classic (G2)
His first start at stakes level saw Farson score his fourth win (three on end) from just six starts with an easy victory here. From barrier nine, Farson had to do a lot of work early to sit one out of the leader passing the 1600m and remained there past the 800m until he joined the leader at the 600m. Straightening for the run home, rider Stephen Baster punched the gelding clear inside the 300m, was still clear at the 150m and had them all well covered to the line - an easy win. Cliff Hanger had cover in sixth approaching the last corner, was initially blocked for a run at the 300m but saw daylight soon after yet was never going to catch the winner. Captain Rhett was five wide around the last corner, was close enough to challenge turning in but could only battle away to the line for third. Miss Strathallan tracked Captain Rhett into the straight but took some time to get going, flashing into fourth late.
