AHe showed an impressive turn of foot there so we might come back here for the [Aug. 18 G1] Prix Morny and that is under strong consideration,@ revealed trainer Simon Crisford. AHe=s really straightforward, a very easy colt to deal with and he has a nice turn of foot. Luckily, he has all the right attributes and is a very good racehorse. I think a really hard-run five furlongs is a really good trip for him and six [furlongs] shouldn=t be too much of a problem either. He=s in the [Aug. 23 G1] Nunthorpe S.
