King's Stand Stakes winner Miss Andretti seems unlikely to stay in Britain to run in the Darley July Cup at Newmarket on July 13, according to trainer Lee Freeman.
The mare who broke the track record on the opening day of the Royal meeting found the softening conditions against her when she lined up as favourite for the Group One Golden Jubilee Stakes at the weekend and she could only finish 15th out of 21 runners.
"I'll have to discuss the July Cup with Sean (Buckley, owner), but my advice would be to go into quarantine, go back to Australia, spell her and concentrate on Hong Kong at the end of the year," Freedman told the racenet website.
The Betfair market for the Group One contest, won last season by Les Arcs, still has Miss Andretti available to back at 7.6 but the lowest lay price for the six-year-old is 48.
The betting is currently headed by Saturday's third-placed runner Asset on 5.2, with Hughie Morrison's Sakhee's Secret second favourite at 5.6 and Soldier's Tale next best at 11.5.
