Trainer Michael Dods says Mecca's Angel may contest the Qipco British Champions Sprint at Ascot on October 15 as her final outing.
Mecca's Angel will attempt to defend her Nunthorpe Stakes crown at York later this month and Dods feels the Ascot sprint in October could be the perfect way for the five-year-old to bring down the curtain on her racing career.
“If everything is right on the day we'd be keen to have a crack at it [the British Champions Sprint],” said Dods, as reported by Sky Sports.
“This will be her last season before she goes off to stud and we felt she deserved the chance to go for six and this race fits the bill.
“It will be interesting, I think she will stay. It's been difficult to give her a run over the six because of the targets she's already got over five.
“We considered the July Cup this year but I just felt the Newmarket track would not really suit her as well as somewhere like Ascot.
“A lot of people tried to get us to supplement for the Champions Sprint last year. We thought long and hard about it, but decided we wouldn't because we were going to go for the Abbaye. Then that didn't work out because of the ground.”
