Shamardal won the Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket last year
|
Last season's champion juvenile Shamardal is likely to run in the French 2,000 Guineas later this month.
The Godolphin colt was ante-post favourite for the 2,000 Guineas until a poor showing on his reappearance in the UAE Derby in March.
But Shamardal is said to be back on form and is on course to return to action at Longchamp on Sunday week.
Godolphin racing manager Simon Crisford said: "Unfortunately things didn't work out in the UAE Derby.
"He had a little bit of shin soreness, but that corrected itself very quickly. He is back in full training and we are very pleased with him.
"He is a strong possibility for the French 2,000 Guineas."
