Cecil hints at Twice Over Dubai World Cup plan

HENRY CECIL returned to Warren Place in high spirits on Sunday evening following his successful Breeders' Cup exploits and said Twice Over could be in action in the world's most valuable race, the Dubai World Cup at the new Meydan racecourse on March 27.

Cecil enjoyed his first winner at the Breeders' Cup meeting when Midday collected the Emirates Airline Breeders' Cup Fillies & Mare Turf on Friday and the performance of Twice Over - third behind Zenyatta in the Breeders' Cup Classic the following evening - left the Newmarket trainer convinced the exercise had been "worth doing".

Cecil, who also saddled Father Time in the Marathon, said: "They seem fine after their races and hopefully will travel back well. It was worth doing and the idea is for Midday to remain in training next year and Twice Over may go for the Dubai World Cup."
