SNOWFALL's all-the-way Musidora victory was regarded as something of a fluke and Ryan Moore deserted her for the Oaks where she dispelled those thoughts with an outstanding 16 lengths victory under Frankie Dettori. She'll face much faster conditions here but can't be opposed with the next top-rated, Nicest, being 15lb behind her. The latter and Divinely were separated by a neck in the Ribblesdale and along with Willow, who was last at Epsom but has since won a Naas Listed contest, they could fight it out for the places.
