Trainer Stephen Brown has 10 runners entered for Saturday's Darwin meeting but a lone runner at Caulfield is likely to be at the centre of his attention.

Regimental Pride, the winner of two quality juvenile races at Rosehill, makes his debut for Brown in Procal Dairies Handicap (1000m) - and it promises to be a memorable one.

A son of the quality producer More Than Ready, Regimental Pride is from the Group One winner and Magic Millions champion Regimental Gal, and his record suggests he has inherited a fair share of her ability.

"He goes pretty good," Brown said.

"He finished fifth in the Silver Slipper and wasn't beaten very far, that's not bad form."

The "form" of Regimental Pride's previous connections also does a lot to recommend him.

Before coming to Brown, the colt was trained in Sydney by David Payne and owned by the astute Ron Medich.

Brown, who has stables in both Darwin and Melbourne, has won several races in Melbourne with a number of horses with the same origins, most notably Sea Lord, a stakes winner at Moonee Valley in the autumn.

"I've had some luck with horses I've bought from them in the past, so I went back when I heard I might be able to buy this bloke and I've been pretty happy with him," he said.

Regimental Pride hasn't run since March when he failed in the Skyline Stakes at Warwick Farm.

Brown said the colt would improve on Saturday's effort, but the small field and the absence of the exciting colt Clevadude who was named as a certain runner on Tuesday but didn't accept, have brought him into the race.

"It took us a little while to work him out but he's pretty forward now and he should go alright," he said.

Among Brown's likely Darwin runners are former Victorian galloper The Big Steel who scored at Fannie Bay last Saturday and Bolton, both of which are entered for the Chief Minister's Cup.
