Aidan O'Brien is leaning towards running September in Sunday's Breast Cancer Research Debutante Stakes at the Curragh rather than tackling the Prix Morny in France on the same day.

The Chesham Stakes winner is engaged in both the Deauville Group One and the Irish Group Two event, but O'Brien is currently favouring staying closer to home.

O'Brien also has Actress entered in the Deauville race, but the Ballydoyle handler admits he may not have a runner in the French feature if September does not run.

He said: "We're a bit caught with France, what we are doing there in the morning. We have the two fillies in and if September went, obviously she wouldn't go to the Curragh.

"We're thinking of going to the Curragh with her and it's possible then we might not have anything in France."
