Green Door is to be supplemented for the Vision.ae Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket on October 12 after fulfilling connections' expectations at Doncaster.

Trainer Olly Stevens had always rated the Camacho colt highly and he finally proved that with victory in the Group Two Flying Childers Stakes.

"We've always liked this horse. He's grown so much during the course of the year. He was a very late foal. I think he was too busy growing to run well," said the Surrey handler.

"What we saw last week was the horse we always thought we had. He's come out of it absolutely bouncing. He was jumping up and down in his box the following day and we'll supplement him for the Middle Park."

Extortionist, who was third behind his stablemate at Doncaster, will now go for the Group Three BMW Cornwallis Stakes at Ascot on October 5.

"On the numbers that was his best race to date. He was closing down the gap the whole way and he will go for the Cornwallis," said Stevens.

"He's a course and distance winner (in the Windsor Castle Stakes at the Royal meeting). He ran at Doncaster like a Group Three winner."
