Twice Over

Twice to swerve World Cup

Twice Over will not run in the Dubai World Cup on March 31 after two unsuccessful shots at the Meydan showpiece.

Sir Henry Cecil's seven-year-old showed the fire still burns brightly last season by beating stablemate Midday in the Juddmonte International at York to provide his owner, Prince Khalid Abdullah, with a first win in the race he sponsors.

"He's not going to go to Dubai this year. He's fine at the moment but it's too early to say where we'll start off this season," said Teddy Grimthorpe, Abdullah's racing manager.

"We'll just see how he is, but his races are pretty much mapped out for him.

"He may be seven, but he remains tremendously enthusiastic. It would have been very hard to take him away from Warren Place as everyone is very attached to him there."
