Aidan O'Brien's travelling head lad TJ Comerford indicated that the team are still aiming to press on to the Cox Plate with Taj Mahal, who finished 10th in the Group One Ladbrokes Stakes at Caulfield over the weekend.

"The Cox Plate is the big option for him, we can change a few little things around with him the next time, I will have to see what Aidan and Lloyd (Williams, part-owner) think, but I do think it would be an option," he said.

"Taj Mahal just ended up being a bit lazy, he probably needed that to wake him up because he is a good horse you know, there is better to come from Taj Mahal, I don't doubt that he will improve."
