Camelot in frame for Breeders’ Cup
Trainer Aidan O’Brien is also considering a race on the Dundalk all-weather as the four-year-old former three-time Classic winner edges closer to his protracted return to the track.
O’Brien said: “We have one eye on the Breeders’ Cup, he’s a horse that needs good ground.
“Conditions would normally suit him in America.”
Camelot has not been sighted since finishing fourth in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot in June.
Meanwhile, Kerrin McEvoy will partner the Willie Mullins-trained Simenon when he makes his Australian debut at Caulfield tomorrow.
Runner-up in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot before narrowly beaten in the Lonsdale Cup at York, the six-year-old last month made the journey to Australia in the hope of getting a run in the Melbourne Cup.
As he is not guaranteed a starting berth at Flemington on November 5, Simenon lines up in the Herbert Power Stakes over a mile and half in the hope of getting the penalty which is likely to get him into the race.
McEvoy enjoyed a successful stint in Europe for Sheikh Mohammed’s operation before relocating to his homeland
