"The Sussex Stakes looks a hot race, even for an English Group 1, but Lord Shanakill is on course for it," said Burke. "That's the plan. As long as the ground is good and he remains in good form, he'll go to Goodwood."
Meanwhile, the prognosis is good for Australian veteran Takeover Target, who broke a leg in the July Cup at Newmarket on Friday.
Trainer Joe Janiak said: "He's going to be at Newmarket's Equine Hospital for three months, then he'll be in quarantine, before we fly him home.
"It was touch and go until they discovered what was wrong (a broken cannon bone), but once they knew what it was, they did a first-class job. I'm happy that they saved him and that he's going to be okay."
