The Paul Mulrennan Column: Top-weight may not be enough to stop Euchen Glen

Once I get back from racing on Saturday evening, I'll be tuning in to watch the Breeders' Cup action and it will be good to see a couple of the northern-based lads, Tom Eaves and Jason Hart, getting their chances at one of the biggest meetings in the world.

But for me it's all about Doncaster, where I ride a horse who has been an absolute star for me this season in Euchen Glen in the November Handicap. What a buzz it's been to get two Group races on the board with him in his last two races - to have that amount of horse under me at Newbury last time is the sort of position every jockey wants to be in a race like that.

I've spoken to Jim Goldie and he is as happy as Larry with the horse. By not raising his mark from 109 for his last win, the handicapper really opened the door for us to run again here and other than some possible targets abroad, this is our last opportunity for a while to strike while the iron is so hot.

Of course, he has a lot of weight to give away to some decent rivals. No Flat handicap can be won easily off a mark that high, particularly not one with 20-plus runners and in testing ground. But do I think he can do it? Yes, I do. He is just thriving at the moment - at the age of seven, he has never been better.

Dakota Gold is a brilliant ride to pick up while Connor Beasley is out riding winners in Dubai. Connor rode him in his first couple of starts, won on him, and he's been Connor's ride ever since - in fact, this is the first time I've been on him on the track, so I suppose you'd say it's nice to get a spare!

But what a good spare to be on in the Listed Wentworth Stakes, because he's another horse ending the year in flying form. He's a pretty straightforward ride and Michael Dods has got the best out of him this year.

I'd say another of my rides, Revich, would have a very decent chance on Saturday too - don't rule out a big from him for Richard Spencer. I won a nice race on him at Chester a couple of starts ago and I really liked him. Then at Ascot afterwards, when I watched that race, I felt he might just have been a bit unlucky not to go closer.

It might not be Keeneland, but I'll be delighted to end the turf season on a high with a winner or two, before knuckling down to ride what I hope will be plenty more winners on the All-weather over the winter.
