It is looking increasingly more competitive since the above despite a convincing victory in the Irish Oaks by Seventh Heaven. It is 5/1 the field.

I'll be having another try on Harlequeen. Good for a place, had her ew for the English & Irish Oaks.
Sadly she seems disinclined to pass the first horse(s), as seen on her last run in Ireland, which she could have won......which I admit is a problem for a racehorse!! Still I like her, and if for some reason they could sort out her steering, and awkward head carriage, she'd go close. Although I do admit that's a lot of problems......, I'll get a decent price I suppose! |

The declaration of Found by AOB has flummoxed me, why has he done it? Is it as a precaution just in case the ground turns soft - Seventh Heaven cannot go on it - and Even Song - goes well in the soft but not good/firm - cannot make the race? He has done the same with US Army Ranger in the Juddmonte despite stating he is a very unlikely runner with Highland Reel and Sir Issac Newton his most probable runners.

This is the latest from AOB regarding Seventh Heaven, Even Song and Found: "The plan is to run Seventh Heaven and possibly Even Song in the Yorkshire Oaks. Found is left in the race, but we haven't made a definite plan for her yet."

Was amazed Queens Trust was 16/1 after her second to Minding in the Nassau, particularly given she will likely prove better over 12f. I've backed her eachway, posted on Flat thread, so hope she runs.

No longer, Queens Trust is only 8/1 at best now. AOB has left in Found (2/1), Seventh Heaven (4/1) and Even Song (14/1), only absentee is the French horse, Candarliya, but I'd be surprised if Even Song runs if ground condition remains good to firm given her dislike for that ground.

Turret Rocks isn't a horse i'd want to lay at 33/1 under e/w rules. Other than that i've no position.

Of the 'Coolmore' four runners, which will be subject to their customary support prior to the race, Found and/or Seventh Heaven? The other two ie Even Song and Pretty Perfect, the former could be inconvenienced by the going and the role of the latter could be to ensure a good searching pace.
