Trainer John Sargent is looking to the future for Favreau with the Listed VRC St Leger at Flemington a part of his education.

Up-and-coming three-year-old Yaletown has dictated throughout to win the Tulloch Stakes, earning his spot in the Australian Derby.

A more mature Favreau will be out to make an Australian Derby statement via a traditional lead-up to the Group One blue riband.

It’s not lost on trainer John Sargent that Saturday’s Group 2 $200,000 Signace Tulloch Stakes (2000m) has proven, in recent years, the best path into the Australian Derby and that’s shaped promising stayer Favreau’s autumn campaign.

John Sargent does not expect the delayed running of the Golden Slipper to impact the winning chances of Four Moves Ahead.
