Tuesday bids to emulate Salsabil and Balanchine by landing the Oaks at Epsom and the Irish Derby and everything points to her obvious chance. Aidan O'Brien's filly had subsequent French Oaks winner Nashwa back in third at Epsom and her allowance is an obvious advantage against Epsom Derby third WESTOVER. However, Ralph Beckett's charge was very unlucky in-running in the classic being repeatedly denied a clear run at crucial stages. He would definitely have given Desert Crown a race had he obtained a clear run and can gain compensation. Piz Badile didn't appear to enjoy the track at Epsom and can get closer while Hannibal Barca's pedigree suggests he'll do much better now stepped up to this trip.
