Bin Suroor relishing chance to take on Winx in Cox Plate with Benbatl

Saeed Bin Suroor was delighted with what he saw on Newmarket's Limekilns on Thursday afternoon as his Australian-bound trio stepped up their respective preparations in quarantine.

Benbatl, Best Solution and Prize Money were all given a workout as they near the midpoint of their time in isolation, which began on September 12 and will end on September 29.

Fresh from his fifth behind Roaring Lion in the Juddmonte International at York last month, Benbatl will spearhead Bin Suroor's team heading to Australia and could be in line for a run as early as October 13, with an outing at Caulfield reportedly under consideration.
