Azamour On Target

Azamour is on course to end his racing career in the Breeders´ Cup Turf after recovering from a muscle injury.

The four-year-old, trained in Ireland by John Oxx, suffered the setback when attempting back-to-back victories in the Irish Champion Stakes last month.

It forced him to miss yesterday´s Prix de l´Arc de Triomphe but everything is on track for Belmont Park on October 29, after which he will be retired to his owner the Aga Khan´s Gilltown Stud in Kilcullen, County Kildare.

'He is ticking over nicely according to John Oxx. Everything is bang in order for the Breeders´ Cup,' said the Aga Khan´s French racing manager Georges Rimaud.
