Charlie Longsdon is weighing up the possible options for Qhilimar after the weather scuppered an intended run at Sandown on Saturday.
The eight-year-old was due to return to Esher after making much of the running at the track a month ago, only weakening in the straight to finish third behind the impressive Hold On Julio and Neptune Collonges, but with the Sandown fixture having to be abandoned due to frost, Longsdon must now decide on an alternative engagement.
"He was going to run at Sandown on Saturday, so we'll have to find something else for him now," said Longsdon.
"He's in really good form at the moment and his run at Sandown a month ago was probably a career-best and if Hold On Julio hadn't been in the race, I'd like to think we might have beaten Neptune Collonges.
"He has the Grand National entry and we'll see about that nearer the time. He could go to Ascot next for a race on the 18th, then at Cheltenham we could look at the three-mile handicap on the first day and the Kim Muir."
