"We could have done with a bit of luck, but that's the way things go. He has taken the race well though, and has travelled back to England okay."
Should Conduit head to Santa Anita, he is likely to be joined by stablemate Spanish Moon, and Stoute will seek a similar result to the 1996 renewal, where Pilsudski led home Singspiel. Skybet offer 8-1 that there will be another Stoute 1-2 in the Turf.
Godolphin's Cavalryman, third in the Arc, has been cut to 4-1 (from 10s), but is reportedly a doubtful runner.
Breeders' Cup Turf (Skybet): 6-4 Conduit, 4 Cavalryman, 7 Gio Ponti, 8 Fame And Glory, 9 Stacelita, 10 Vision D'Etat, Youmzain, 16 bar.
