Roger Charlton is considering big-race options for promising colt Dundonnell.

The two-year-old, owned by Khalid Abdullah, was runner-up in the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster after winning at York and was taken out of this weekend's Juddmonte Royal Lodge at the confirmation stage.

He holds entries in the two major autumn Group One events for juveniles - the Dubai Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket on October 13 and the Racing Post trophy at Doncaster two weeks later.

"I've no idea where he's going to go next. He was never going to run in the Royal Lodge, so it's not a surprise," said the Beckhampton trainer.

"The Dewhurst and the Racing Post Trophy are still possibles. He's very well."

Bloodstock Al: Epsom Derby hope Chopin one of only 2 winners to date from 10 foals born in sire Santiago's 2010 (and first) crop. Sire a Gr2 winning miler.
Bloodstock Al: As anticipated, Frankel's 2yo half-sister Joyeuse (Oasis Dream) entered to make her debut in a maiden at Lingfield Park next Tuesday.
Bloodstock Al: Kalima's only other foal of racing age, Jet Away, a domestic Listed winner and a Gr3 winner this year in Australia.
