Big Mojo's Sprint Cup win up to standard but placed runner could be the one to watch for British Champions Day

In a draw-affected Betfair Sprint Cup, Big Mojo capitalised on an advantageous stall and good track position to add his name to the register of Group 1 sprint winners this year, running a minor personal best to record a Racing Post Rating of 121.
With the first four coming from a group of six to race slightly detached on the favoured stands' rail early, the form cannot be rated too highly, while neither runner-up Kind Of Blue (117+) nor third-placed Flora Of Bermuda (114) enjoyed the clearest of runs tracking Big Mojo on the rail.
Still, with Big Mojo lowering the course record and Kind Of Blue running to a similar level to when narrowly held in last year's Sprint Cup, the form looks sound enough among them. Flora Of Bermuda rates close to her best, up 10lb on last year's closing fifth in the race as a three-year-old, while fourth-placed Rage Of Bamby went some way to confirming her surprise Hackwood Stakes success with an RPR of 112.
