FormscanBy Michael Graham - MCPHERSON's debut was filled with promise and he is taken to get off the mark. The Golden Horn colt went off second favourite at the Curragh in August and was always to the fore before giving best in the final 100 yards to finish fourth. He was beaten just over a length by the winner, High Definition, who scored on his next start in Group 2 company and goes into the winter as favourite for next year's Epsom Derby. Roman Empire looks set to improve upon his debut fourth at this track in July. His stablemate King Of The Castle really catches the eye on debut as a full brother to several winners including this year's Epsom Derby winner Serpentine. He has to be checked in the market. Artistic Work is the most experienced in the field and has a shot, in first-time cheekpieces, if putting his best foot forward.
