Newmarket off the agenda for Campanelle

Connections say Campanelle will target the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies’ Turf rather than head to Newmarket.

The Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket had been suggested as a possible target for Campanelle after success in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot and a first Group 1 victory at Deauville last month.

However, trainer Wesley Ward has now confirmed she will not race again until the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies’ Turf on November 6.

“She’s back with me and she’ll have her first bit of work on Saturday on the grass at Keeneland,” he told the Racing Post.

“We took her out of the Cheveley Park. She’s right where the Breeders’ Cup is being run and she can go straight from her stall to the paddock.

“She’s doing great and travelled back well. We’re training straight into the race.”
