Trainer John Oxx today stated that Born To Sea, runner-up behind Camelot in yesterday's Irish Derby, will be aimed at the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown next.

Speaking after his Hartani won the At The Races Curragh Cup, Oxx said “we may aim Born To Sea for the Irish Champion Stakes.

“Whether or not he'd have a run beforehand I don't know.”
