Charlie Hills says they are keeping options open as they consider Battaash's next outing while refusing to rule out a trip to the Curragh.
The six-year-old earned a third successive victory in impressive fashion at York's Ebor Festival on August 21 to further enhance his reputation as a sprinter.
Battaash beat Que Amoro by a length in the Coolmore Nunthorpe Stakes to build on a record-breaking fourth win in the King George Stakes at Goodwood in July.
Several options have been suggested, including the Derrinstown Stud Flying Five Stakes at the Curragh, for Battaash's next outing but Hills insists connections won't make a final decision until next week.
Hills said: “We will keep all the options open for Battaash and just see how the horse is and go from there. I'm happy though with the way he has come out of the York race.
“We have got Ireland, France for the Abbaye, then America for the Breeders' Cup and they are probably the only three races for him.
“We will have a chat with the team next week. No decision has been made, but Ireland has certainly not been ruled out.
“We have just got to look at the travel options and see what opportunities there are to do what, and hopefully get it right.”
