Connections of Bago have not yet ruled out a tilt at the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe Lucien Barriere at Longchamp next month.

Jonathan Pease’s star colt lost his unbeaten record when third in the Juddmonte International at York but was sent off a hot favourite to regain the winning thread in the Prix Niel over the Arc course and distance on Sunday.
