Aidan O'Brien's smart juvenile Old Deuteronomy has been bought privately by an American group and transferred to trainer Niall O'Callaghan in Florida for his three-year-old campaign.
Old Deuteronomy won at Newmarket in May on the first of his six starts but his best performance came when he was a one-length second to his stable companion One Cool Cat in the Group One Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh in August.
"We're going to see if he takes to dirt," O'Callaghan told the Thoroughbred Times.
"He finished second to a very good horse in the Phoenix and that's always a good race. Wiseman's Ferry finished fourth in that race a few years ago before we bought him. Hopefully this is the same kind of horse.
"We'll probably start him out in allowance company and go from there."
Old Deuteronomy also finished a half-length second to Carrizo Creek in the Richmond Stakes at Glorious Goodwood, fourth in the Prix Morny at Deauville and seventh behind Three Valleys in the Shadwell Stud Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket on his final start of the season.
