UPBEAT NATHANIEL BULLETIN ISSUED

John Gosden reports Nathaniel to be "much brighter" this morning after the star colt was ruled out of Sunday's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe earlier this week.
The dual Group One winner was considered a major contender for top honours at Longchamp this weekend, but he was found to have a temperature on Tuesday morning and after a subsequent blood test proved unsatisfactory, connections had little option but to withdraw him from the race.

TOP FAVOURED FOR OPERA TEST

John Gosden is leaning towards running Izzi Top rather than The Fugue in Sunday's Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp.
The Fugue beat her stable companion comprehensively in the Nassau Stakes at Glorious Goodwood in early August and very nearly completed a Group One double when only narrowly denied by French filly Shareta in the Yorkshire Oaks.
