Fame And Glory is to be tried in headgear for what could be the decorated stayer's final start at next month's Breeders' Cup.
Last year's Ascot Gold Cup winner, who also has an Irish Derby and a Coronation Cup on his CV, will be one of nine runners for Aidan O'Brien at Santa Anita in just a week and a half's time.
O'Brien felt Fame And Glory's attitude could be called into question when he finished only fifth behind Rite Of Passage on Champions Day, and will test him on dirt for the first time in the Breeders' Cup Marathon

Nacarat is set to make his seasonal reappearance in the Betfred Monet's Garden Old Roan Chase at Aintree on Saturday.
Trainer Tom George hopes the two-and-a-half-mile limited handicap will leave the 11-year-old spot-on for another crack at the william Hill King George VI Chase at Kempton on Boxing Day.
"Our plan at the moment is to run as long as they don't get any more rain and the ground stays as it is," said the Slad-based handler.
