Watching the progress of Godolphin horses as they start stepping our for their new trainers has been interesting to say the least and will get more so this weekend when we see Tom Kitten go around in the Group I MRC Memsie Stakes at Caulfield, but one horse we won’t be seeing again is Commemorative.

Cody Cole is happy to play a waiting game with Landlock before confirming the three-year-old’s main goals for the season.
