FormscanBy Tom Weekes - HENRI MATISSE is still a work in progress but can progress further. Out of a Group 1-winning dam, none of his wins have been flashy performances and while he ran around slightly in winning the Railway Stakes and jinked in the Futurity, he finished that latest race quite well and is ideally suited by this distance. Aomori City also seemed to benefit from stepping up to this distance when winning in July. He had previously finished third to subsequent Prix Morny winner Whistlejacket at Newmarket while his Goodwood form was subsequently boosted by the third-placed colt winning at Group 2 level. Hill Road stays well as he impressively won his maiden over a mile, but steps up markedly in class.
