ARCHIPENKO AND EAGLE MOUNTAIN TO GALLOP
Trainer Mike De Kock's charges Eagle Mountain and Archipenko are set to gallop at Newmarket Racecourse this Saturday, September 13.
Eagle Mountain has not been seen out in competitive action since finishing second in the Emirates Airline Champion Stakes last October.
The Rock Of Gibraltar four-year-old is now being prepared for another race at The NatWest Rowley Mile course. He is being targeted at the Group Three Nayef Joel Stakes on Friday, October 3.
Archipenko is also in line for a big-race assignment at the Course of Champions. He is scheduled to have a crack at the £375,000 Group One Emirates Airline Champion Stakes, run on Champions Day, Saturday, October 18.
The Kingmambo colt's last start was in the Arlington Million in which he was a narrowly-beaten runner-up.
Jockey Kevin Shea will be on hand to ride in the work this Saturday, which takes place at 7.30am, while two other De Kock-trained horses will also gallop.
