Tom Kitten signalled even better results were to come when he returned to racing with an unlucky second in the Gl Futurity Stakes over 1,400m at Caulfield two weeks ago.

While Godolphin Australia head trainer James Cummings believes Tom Kitten could be poised for the best preparation of his career, he's a realist and knows taking on weight-for-age champion Mr Brightside and others in Saturday's GI All-Star Mile at Flemington is a big task.

"He pulled up outstandingly from that run in the Futurity," Cummings said on Thursday. "His gallop on the course proper this week was scintillating.
