No Abbaye For Revival Power, Cornwallis A Possibility

Group winner Revival Power will not contest the G1 Prix de l'Abbaye on Sunday week, according to owner King Power Racing's racing manager Alastair Donald. The G3 Cornwallis Stakes on October 10 is a possibility for the full-sister to G1 Nunthorpe heroine Winter Power.
The daughter of Bungle Inthejungle broke her maiden at Thirsk in May and learned plenty when 11th in the G2 Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot. Second in a conditions race at Goodwood in July, the King Power Racing runner won the Listed Roses Stakes at York in August and doubled down with a 1 1/2-length tally in the G2 Flying Childers Stakes at Doncaster earlier this month.
“She's not going to go for the Abbaye, but there is a possibility we'll run her in the Cornwallis under a penalty,” said Donald of the Tim Easterby-trained filly. “The programme is quite obvious for her next year working back from a Nunthorpe and she could run in races like the Palace House and King Charles III Stakes etc.
“She's got lots of size and scope and we're hopeful she will be a better three-year-old than two.”
