* Moment Of Change (2014), All Too Hard (2013) and Typhoon Tracy (2010) have completed the CF Orr-Futurity Stakes double. Suavito will attempt to add her name to that list.

WHAT THE CONNECTIONS ARE SAYING

* "She had 10 months off going into her first-up run so there's a lot of room for improvement," trainer Nigel Blackiston on Suavito, winner of the C F Orr Stakes earlier this month.

* "This is one of the strongest races we'll see through the autumn but it doesn't bother me. I know Scissor Kick's form and the only thing he is lacking is a race for at least nine months" - Scissor Kick's jockey Craig Williams.
