Coolmore said on Friday that Magician, brilliant winner of the Irish 2,000 Guineas on his last start, had sustained minor bruising following a knock on Thursday.
However a statement posted on www.coolmore.com on Saturday said O'Brien now hoped the Ballydoyle duo will both take their chance in the Group One over a mile.
Magician is due to be ridden by Joseph O'Brien, with Mars, who finished sixth in the Investec Derby, the intended mount of Ryan Moore.
The statement said: "Magician and Mars will both be declared. Mars is a definite runner and hopefully Magician will run."
