Sprint Cup: Slade Power misses Group 1 contest

Slade Power represents the same connections as Sole Power
Slade Power has suffered a setback that will rule him out of the Sprint Cup at Haydock on Saturday week...
Edward Lynam's three-year-old has missed several days' work because of an abscess which means he will not be ready to compete in the six-furlong Group 1 on Merseyside.
The County Meath trainer will now aim Slade Power at the British Champions Sprint at Ascot on October 20.
"He's had a slight setback. He's had an abscess on his shoulder and he's not going to make the Sprint Cup," said Lynam.
"He's going to go to Ascot for the Champions Day Sprint in October. It's nothing serious, but he's missed work the last few days. He's fine, but he's just not going to be ready in time."
Ortensia, who won the Nunthorpe Stakes at York, currently heads the ante-post market for the Sprint Cup, trading at 4.57/2.
