LODGE CUP POSSIBLE

Indian Lodge is still a possible for the Breeders` Cup Mile at Churchill Downs in Kentucky next month, it emerged today.

Amanda Perrett`s much-improved performer landed his second Group One contest of the season at Longchamp on Sunday when comfortably beating Dansili by two and a half lengths in the Prix de la Foret to prompt connections to think about a trip to America.

The trainer`s husband Mark Perrett said: 'To be quite honest we hadn`t thought about America but if it looked like that there was a chance he was going to get his soft ground - if there was a deluge in Kentucky - then we would consider it.

'The plan was this weekend and we hadn`t looked beyond it.

'We`ll mull the Breeders` Cup option over in the next week or so before we have to make the entry.'

Indian Lodge, who also won the Group One Prix du Moulin last month, retires to the Rathbarry Stud at the end of the season and Perrett added: 'The only race for him is America then that would be it.

'Hewouldn`t go to Hong Kong because the ground would be too fast for him.

'But he has done really well for us already winning four Group races.'
