Trainer Jean-Claude Rouget insists Almanzor is in good shape as he gears up for a trip to Ascot on October 15.
Almanzor looks set to reignite his rivalry with Found in the Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot on Saturday week.
The duo battled out an incredible race in the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown last month with Almanzor taking the win ahead of Found in second.
However, Found returned to winning ways on Sunday at the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe to lead home a famous Ballydoyle one-two-three.
Rouget insists he is not thinking about the threat posed by the Aidan O’Brien filly and feels his charge is preparing well for the Ascot trip.
“The horse is well and we hope to bring him to Ascot in his best form. So far he has had no problems in his preparation, but we still have 12 days to go.” Rouget said.
“I don’t know (what else is running). I just concentrate on my own horse, the others are not my problem.”
