Racing: Fruits Of Love may miss York

THE CHANCES of Fruits Of Love lining up in the International Stakes at York on Tuesday are only "50-50", according to his trainer Mark Johnston.

"The plan has always been to go for the Canadian International followed by the Breeders' Cup and Japan Cup," Johnston said, "but if a suitable opportunity came up in the meantime we'd consider it."

The York going was yesterday good, good to firm in places. International Stakes possible Dubai Millennium has an alternative entry in the Prix Guillaume D'Ornano at Deauville on Saturday, which could also see the return of Guineas flop Commander Collins.
