Connections of Twice Over are in no hurry to decide on plans following his shock defeat in the totesport.com Dante Stakes.

The Henry Cecil-trained colt lost his place at the head of the ante-post market for the Vodafone Derby when only third at odds-on in the Group Two contest at York on Thursday.

He has a host of other top-class entries including the Boylesports Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh tomorrow week, the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and the Coral-Eclipse Stakes at Sandown.

"He seems well," said owner Khalid Abdullah's racing manager Teddy Grimthorpe.

"We are going to sit back and see how he is and think about it a bit more."
