Formosina is poised for a busy juvenile campaign with Jeremy Noseda contemplating running the Railway Stakes winner another five times - culminating in a tilt at the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf in November.

Third behind Coventry Stakes winner Strong Suit at Newbury, the colt improved to win by seven lengths at Doncaster and then ended Aidan O'Brien's domination of the Railway Stakes at the Curragh by denying Samuel Morse.

"He is in good shape and ate up well. I watched Royal Ascot and took a view with the Irish horses that they were running well but not winning. I saw a winning opportunity and thank goodness the owner was patient and waited for it," said Noseda.

"He is a good two-year-old type and will definitely get a mile as a three-year-old. He will get a mile this year too and a mile on a flat track in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf will be ideal.
