‘He's a proper horse and I could really see him taking off’ - leading trainers on their big autumn hopes

We ask top trainers in Britain and Ireland about the horses they are most looking forward to running for the rest of the turf season

Ralph Beckett

Amiloc
Three-year-old gelding by Postponed (sire) out of Colima (dam)
Owner: Mrs David Aykroyd
Form figures: 11-111
Racing Post Rating: 113; Official Rating: 112

He'll go for the Irish St Leger and, if that went well, maybe the Breeders' Cup for the Turf. He had a hard race at Royal Ascot and we've given him plenty of time. I'm happy with him now.
