Henry Candy is in no hurry to make the next move with Limato after conditions scuppered any realistic chance he had in the Al Quoz Sprint at Meydan on Saturday.
The fast-ground performer could never get into contention on the rain-softened ground and he trailed in 10th of 12 behind The Right Man in the Group One contest over six furlongs.
However, Candy reports Limato has returned safe and sound and back at his Wantage stables.
"He got back on Monday night. He's OK," he said.
"The ground went totally against him.
"I've no idea yet what we'll do with him next. We'll sit and think about it for a week or two."
