Aidan O'Brien could lease one of his three remaining Juddmonte International entries to the connections of Golan as a pacemaker for next week's Group One contest.
The Ballydoyle trainer had previously stated his intention to run very few horses at the Ebor meeting as many in his yard are currently coughing. But he said today: "One of the trio could run and probably may have to be leased for the race by the owners of Golan. Everbody knows that Coolmore has an interest in Golan."
Golan headed a field of 12 acceptors for Tuesday's mile and a quarter event at the confirmation stage. Sir Michael Stoute's four-year-old could face a rematch with the Marcus Tregoning-trained Nayef after the pair finished first and second in the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes at Ascot last month.
