Key trainer quotes looking ahead to the bet365 Cambridgeshire at Newmarket on September 28

Karl Burke, trainer of Holloway Boy, Bolster, Liberty Lane, Thunder Run, Bystander and King's Coronation
I couldn't say any of them were definites at this stage. The ground will play a big part for Bolster and Liberty Lane. I would have thought we'll stick to a mile with Thunder Run, but he possibly could be a runner. King's Coronation would be doubtful, I'm not sure he's good enough, and Holloway Boy has lots of other options.

Michael Bell, trainer of Carrytheone
I would say he is a doubtful runner at this stage as we plan to run him in a big handicap at Ascot instead.
