Doncaster Classic firmly on the agenda for unbeaten Carmers
Unraced at two, the Wootton Bassett colt is a perfect three from three this season, most latterly in the Group Three at Royal Ascot, where he showed his stamina for a mile and six furlongs.
'Carmers is in good form. The plan is to go for the Leger and how we get there remains to be seen,' said Twomey.
'The owners are keen on going for the Voltigeur (at York) and there is also the Vinnie Roe in Leopardstown. We could stay at home and just go straight there, so we'll see.'
Twomey – who said his beaten Ribblesdale Stakes favourite Catalina Delcarpio would be coming back to 10 furlongs – added: 'He's a grand horse and doesn't show you much at home.
'He went to Ballinrobe and won, eight days later went to Navan and won, a month later went to Ascot and won. It's hard to find a horse like him.'

Setback signals the end of Scenic's racing career
The daughter of Lope De Vega had made a fine start to her five-year-old campaign, with a Group Three triumph in York's Bronte Cup prompting the Wathnan team to purchase her from previous owner David Ward. She made a promising debut for her new connections when pushing red-hot favourite Estrange all the way in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock and was being readied for the Lillie Langtry Stakes at next week's Qatar Goodwood Festival, but her racing career has come to an abrupt end. Wathnan Racing's adviser, Richard Brown, said: 'Scenic put up a career-best performance last time out and it wasn't unreasonable to hope for some even greater days ahead, but it's not to be. 'She will spend some time recuperating before joining the Wathnan broodmare band. She's one of the best fillies in an exceptional Classic family of broodmares, so the dream now is of big successes with her progeny.'
