Joshua Tree will be considered for the Breeders' Cup Turf at
Churchill Downs next month following an excellent effort in Sunday's
Canadian International.
Marco Botti's colt finished third behind
brilliant Arc winner Danedream in Germany on his penultimate start, and
confirmed that promise by chasing home John Hammond's Sarah Lynx at
Woodbine.
He had Aidan O'Brien's Treasure Beach and fellow British
raiders Arctic Cosmos, Quest For Peace and Redwood behind, and could
head back across the Atlantic if Botti is pleased with his training in
the meantime.
The trainer said: "He ran a very good race and we
