Dual Arc heroine Enable has been given the green light to contest the Longines Breeders' Cup Turf (G1T) at Churchill Downs Nov. 3, Teddy Grimthorpe, racing manager to owner Khallid Abdullah, revealed Oct. 16.
The John Gosden-trained 4-year-old beat Sea of Class at Longchamp this month in a thrilling finish to win her second Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (G1). It was just her second start of the campaign due to a setback suffered earlier in the season.
Enable was a top price of 4-5 for the Breeders' Cup Turf prior to confirmation of her participation, but she is now as short as 4-7 to notch a seventh group/grade 1 and bring her overall tally to 10 wins from 11 starts.
No decision about whether Enable stays in training to aim for a record third Arc will be made until after the Breeders' Cup.
