No return date set for Spring

Plans remain fluid as to when Arab Spring will make his return to action, according to his trainer Sir Michael Stoute.

The five-year-old, who won the John Porter Stakes at Newbury on his seasonal bow, has not been seen out since finishing a close second behind Western Hymn in the Brigadier Gerard Stakes in May.

Although the Ballymacoll Stud-owned son of Monsun holds an entry in the Qipco Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown on September 12, the Newmarket handler has made it clear no date has been pencilled in for his return.

Stoute said: "Arab Spring had a bit of a setback after his run at Sandown. He is just cantering away now and everything seems to be going OK.

"We have not set any targets for him yet, though."
