Nafaqa looks to hold all the aces among six runners in Saturday's Juddmonte Royal Lodge Stakes at Newmarket.

The Barry Hills-trained juvenile beat subsequent easy Mill Reef winner Toocoolforschool in a Listed race at Doncaster on his last start and would be the most significant winner for Hills since he stepped into the breach following the death of his son, John.

Andrew Balding's Elm Park has looked a smart juvenile so far, specifically in winning a Listed race in easy fashion at Salisbury, after which he was bought into by Qatar Racing Ltd.

Karl Burke has enjoyed a great year with his two-year-olds, highlighted by Toocoolforschool's win last week, but Lord Ben Stack is highly regarded and beat a nice sort from Sir Michael Stoute's yard at Haydock on his second start.

Another northern raider, Kevin Ryan's Salateen, steps back up in class after an easy win off top weight in a nursery at Doncaster. He had previously finished fifth in the Acomb.

Richard Hannon's Misterioso has not been seen since winning a Salisbury maiden in July, while David Brown's Medrano completes the sextet.

Aidan O'Brien decided not to run any of his seven possibles.
