Lynam - Prix de l’Abbaye is Power’s sole autumn target

SOLE Power is reported to be in rude health following his shock win in the Coolmore Nunthorpe Stakes at York on Friday.

With his only two previous visits to the winner’s enclosure coming on the all-weather at Dundalk, Edward Lynam’s gelding was sent off at 100-1 on the Knavesmire, but he belied his huge odds with a stylish victory.

A trip to France could be next on the three-year-old’s agenda, but Lynam would not be concerned if his pride and joy does not see the racecourse again this season.
