Enable Could Make One More Start On British Champions Day
After a disappointing sixth over soggy ground in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, Juddmonte's Enable could make one more start before closing out her star-studded career. According to the Racing Post, the 6-year-old daughter of Nathaniel is under consideration for the British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes over 1 1/2 miles on Oct. 17 at Ascot.
Trainer John Gosden told racingpost.com: “Enable did one canter on Warren Hill this morning and seems fine after her trip to Paris. Whether she runs again or not is up to her owner Prince Khalid Abdullah and I think a decision about her future will be made after the weekend.”
Enable won two editions of the Arc, in 2017 and 2018, then finished second in 2019. She won the 2018 Breeders' Cup Turf, and three editions of the Group 1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes in 2017, 2019, and 2020. Overall, the mare has earned a record of 15 wins from 19 starts.
