Although Saeed Bin Suroor has had only 12 winners this season it is a great tribute to the quality of his horses that they have notched almost £900,000 in prizemoney in this country.

Dubai Millennium has undoubtedly been the highlight, with wide-margin wins at Nad Al Sheba and at Royal Ascot, and further Group 1 success may come the way of Sheikh Mohammed's trainer with Bertolini in the Darley July Cup at Newmarket this afternoon.

The son of Danzig progressed into one of the best sprinters around when trained by John Gosden last year and he ran a career-best race in defeat when a neck second to Godolphin's Diktat over this trip at Haydock last September.

My selection has confirmed that he retains all his ability on his two outings to date this year for his new handler and he shaped really well from a low draw over an inadequate five furlongs in the Kings Stand at Royal Ascot last time.

The return to this trip will be very much in his favour and the colt, who seems to act on any ground, is taken to beat Aidan O'Brien's Monashee Mountain, who is now visored following two disappointing runs over further.

Tillerman put up an amazing effort for one so inexperienced when a close fifth to Carribean Monarch in the ultra-competitive Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot last time and he is the strong fancy in the equally tough Ladbroke Bunbury Cup over seven furlongs.

Amanda Perrett's lightly-raced four-year-old turned in a performance that was on a par with a listed or Group 3 performer that day and the form of that race has already been boosted by the winner and Speedfit Too.

This strapping sort has plenty of scope for further improvement and he has shown he can handle yielding ground. He tends to take a strong hold in his races so the drop back to this trip in a race that is likely to be run at a furious pace should suit him.

Alec Stewart's Resounding should be all the better for a recent outing when third at Nottingham last month and is the fancy in the Mondi Packaging Handicap over a mile.

And that form has already worked out well with the second and the fifth going in again since. There is plenty of scope for improvement and her rating of 79 could prove to be a lenient one.

On the sand at Wolverhampton, Quakeress appeals as the type to go well at a reasonable price in the Bet Direct Today's Best Bets Handicap over two miles.

The mare has produced her best efforts over this course and distance and will be very well suited by the return to this trip after failing to get competitive over an inadequate mile and a half on turf last time. In a race full of quirky sorts and horses unproven over the trip she is given the nap.

Doctor Dennis is in good form after an easy win on soft ground at Windsor this week and can make a winning debut on the all-weather in the Hamiltons Accountancy And Business Advisers Gold Handicap over six furlongs.

Brian Meehan's three-year-old usually races prominently so he could be the sort to take to this game and his penalty is offset by his young rider's (who has won on him before) claim.

The best bet at Doncaster's evening fixture could be Michael Wigham's Pengamon in the competitive looking Beachcomber Handicap over seven furlongs.

Although he is eight years of age he still retains plenty of ability and enthusiasm for the game and a reproduction of his close second at Haydock last week should see him go close.

l David Loder came to Newmarket on a reconnaissance mission yesterday and walked off with one of the most prestigious prizes of the July Meeting for the second year running.

The trainer returned to his old stamping ground and sent out the Godolphin-owned Noverre to land the TNT July Stakes.

His charge, the 5-2 favourite, defeated Media Mogul by a short-head in the Group Three contest.

Loder will soon be back permanently in Newmarket after a brief spell training for Godolphin at Evry in France.

He moved across the Channel at the beginning of last year to train the juveniles for the Dubai enterprise.

But Godolphin founder Sheikh Mohammed last month decided to scrap the French experiment and move Loder back to the vacant Stanley House stables in Newmarket.

''I will be going back to France to start packing my suitcase,'' said Loder.
