Lord Grimthorpe, racing manager of winning owner and breeder Khalid Abdullah (Juddmonte Farms) said, "He has probably done enough for this year and it is very unlikely that he will run again. The Breeders' Cup is possible but very unlikely. I was very hopeful beforehand but when one has a runner in the Arc de Triomphe one cannot be sure of winning, especially as Rail Link is backward and he had an unusual beginning to his racing career, as his jockey fell off. This is a great success for Juddmonte as we have his sire Dansili and above all two generations on his dam's side."
