Fallon Hoping For Turf Consolation

Kieren Fallon is hoping something can fill the shoes of Prix de l´Arc de Triomphe winner Hurricane Run in the Breeders´ Cup Turf on October 29.

The six-times champion was due to partner his Longchamp hero in New York, but Andre Fabre´s brilliant colt has been ruled out after he was found to be coughing.

Fallon could now ride either Ace or Powerscourt for the Coolmore operation.

He told At The Races: 'I couldn´t believe it, it is probably the most disappointing news I have heard all year.

'We have been having such a fantastic year and I was really looking forward to seeing him in America - I love the Breeders´, it is my favourite meeting of the year and hopefully we will have something else that can help us win the race.'

Following Hurricane Run´s defection, Azamour is now the 7-2 favourite with Coral, with Powerscourt the 9-2 second favourite, ahead of Bago at 11-2.
