Trainer Colin Little says a tilt at a Grp 1 race in Britain this winter are definitely 'on the backburner'. He says: 'Despite the nature of Saturday's the race, we didn't see enough to consider a trip to the UK...I'll take a look at the calendar to see where I will run him next...He's never been further than Geelong this horse, but it might be we need to look at Sydney or Adelaide as there's nothing muc
