Well-performed stayer will bid to add a home Group One title to match his Australian efforts when he opens the third stage of his career on Boxing Day.

The son of Pins will take aim at Tuesday's (2050m) with booked to guide the seven-year-old's fortunes.

He began his career from the Waverley base of , who trained the gelding for brother Grant and sister-in-law Patricia to win twice before he relocated to 's champion stable.

No Compromise claimed a further five victories, including the Group 1 (2400m) and signed off with a midfield finish in the Group 2 (1600m) at earlier this month.

“He will fly in on Sunday and run in the Zabeel Classic and then come back here,” Bill Thurlow said.

“It's all go and he was only 3.7 lengths off them over a mile in The Ingham so that's pretty good form. He'll be forward enough to run a good race, there's no doubt about that.

“He'll come back down to the farm and a few days in the paddock after the Zabeel and then we'll map out a plan for him going forward.”

While No Compromise made his mark at the elite level across the Tasman, he was paying the price for his success.

“He has probably met his mark in Australia, he was up in the weights in pretty strong company and maybe it will be a little bit easier for him here than over there,” Thurlow said.

“We think he can be competitive in the summer and then maybe look at the Livamol (Group 1, 2040m) later next year.”
