Biographer: Misses the Cesarewitch

Biographer will not take his place in the Betfred Cesarewitch at Newmarket on October 13 according to trainer David Lanigan.

The Lambourn handler wants to keep the three-year-old colt at less exacting distances rather than the two and a quarter miles of the marathon handicap.

"He won't go for the Cesarewitch. We're going to keep him at around a mile and a half and a mile and six," he said.

"There are other options for him. There's a Listed race at the end of the month at Ascot and a couple of handicaps.

"We'll just see how he is and go from there."

Biographer had been 16-1 with the sponsors after winning two of his five starts.

He has also finished second in the other three, the latest being in the Melrose Handicap at York last month when he chased home Guarantee.
