I think the colt will have been off for about four-and-a-half months by then. That should be enough time for a good freshening.
He skipped the Arc last year, and I was under the impression that Juddmonte wanted to give the colt another year to mature before running in the 12-furlong Arc. If that is still the plan, I wonder if he will run just one or two times after the Sheema Classic (
maybe Royal Ascot?) and then rest up until an Arc prep in September.
