Cesarewitch date on ice for Olympiad

Connections of Olympiad will wait until nearer the time before making a definite decision on his participation in the Betfred Cesarewitch.

The Dermot Weld-trained four-year-old is a 12-1 chance with the sponsors for the October 13 contest at Newmarket after claiming a decent handicap at York last month.

That was the four-year-old’s fifth career start and he would be lining up off a mark of 96 in the two-and-a-quarter-mile handicap after racing off 89 on the Knavesmire.
