Tuesday hasn’t won since landing the Oaks at Epsom with NASHWA back in third. But the Gosdens’ filly has been the more progressive since and won a couple of Group 1 contests over 1m2f before going close in France with the Ballydoyle filly behind and Above The Curve third. Irish Oaks runner-up Toy and James Ferguson’s Mise En Scene face tough tasks but Chad Brown has a fine record in this and runs three. The front-runner and Grade 1 winner In Italian had stablemate Rougir back in fourth before the latter went on to land the E P Taylor at Woodbine with the subsequently-disqualified Moira passing the post in second. Virginia Joy is a Grade 2 winner while Going To Vegas has been in good form on the West Coast and won a Grade 1 at Santa Anita last month.
