Cima De Triomphe likely to avoid Stars and travel to Chicago

Luca Cumani’s Cima De Triomphe is more likely to tackle the Arlington Million in America on August 8 rather than head to Ascot for the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes on Saturday week.

The Coral-Eclipse fourth had been as short as 12/1 withBet365 for the Group 1 in less than a fortnight, however, the trainer is keen to avoid Sea The Stars and Conduit, the two horses (along with Rip Van Winkle) that were ahead of him at Sandown.

It would now appear that the four-year-old will head to Chicago for the Million and the trainer has explained that any decision on the future of last year’s Italian Derby winner is in the hands of owner, Teruya Yoshida.  Luca Cumani said:  "At the moment we are looking at either the King George or the Arlington Million next."

"The decision is with the owner and I think he is thinking about it at the moment."

With the uncertainty over the participation of dual-Classic winner, Sea The Stars, the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes market remains very open and it is Sir Michael Stoute’s Conduit that is the current favourite on the exchanges.  Cima De Triomphe has been allowed to drift to as big as 34.00 on Betfair.

Golden Sword   9.0
