Zavateri can see them all off for success

ZAVATERI can come out on top in an eagerly-awaited battle with Gstaad and Distant Storm to maintain his perfect juvenile record and claim the Darley Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket.

- 

Eve Johnson Houghton has already confirmed the Group One contest will be her star colt’s final start of a stunning campaign, which has seen the two-year-old land the July Stakes, Vintage Stakes and the Vincent O’Brien National Stakes.

That latter saw a titanic tussle with Aidan O'Brien's Gstaad, coming out on top by a head at the Curragh.

Distant Storm, trained by Charlie Appleby, comes into the equation following his Tattersalls Stakes triumph last month, but Zavateri knows how to put his head down and might have been a shade better value than the narrow margin suggests last time.
