Minnie Hauk

8st 13lb

J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

1m4f Group 1 wins last summer in the Oaks, Irish Oaks and Yorkshire Oaks (good to soft-good to firm) before taking on males in the Arc at Longchamp (1m4f, very soft) and finishing a clear second to Daryz, beaten just a head; reappeared with a Group 2 win at the Curragh (1m2f, good) and, while she has something to prove after a disappointing run there in the Tattersalls Gold Cup (10.5f, good), she may well be in the mix if she's back to her best.

Minnie Hauk

J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

Last year's top-rated filly worldwide; won the Cheshire Oaks, the Classics at Epsom and the Curragh and the Yorkshire Oaks; at least matched her best effort when touched off by Daryz on soft in the Arc, well clear of the remainder; perhaps one race too many when underwhelming at the Breeders' Cup; picked up smoothly to win a Group 2 by 1.75l here on seasonal return (1m2f, good); this is a bigger task, and it's not unfair to say her ideal trip is further than this, but she's the most likely winner.

Second in the Irish Derby and Grand Prix de Paris for Aidan O'Brien in 2023; mostly below that level in Australia, apart from a nose second in 1m2f Group 3 at Randwick last September; marked his return to Ireland with a pleasing staying-on third to Minnie Hauk in 1m2f Curragh Group 2 (good) in May; failed to feature in Royal Ascot's Wolferton Stakes.

Second in the Irish Derby and Grand Prix de Paris for Aidan O'Brien in 2023; failed to match that level in Australia until finishing a nose second in 1m2f Group 3 at Randwick last September; down the field in the Caulfield Cup on his final start there but resumed his European career with a pleasing staying-on third to Minnie Hauk in 1m2f Curragh Group 2 (good) six weeks ago; raced largely on good or softer on turf (below form in 2023 Derby on good to firm); his yard has had three placed in this since 2021.

Dundalk debut winner for Adrian Murray; showed improvement on second start for this yard when 6.5l behind Minnie Hauk in Curragh Group 2 (1m2f, good) last month; completely outclassed in Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh 19 days ago; this is a lot easier but unproven on soft; blinkers.

Showed improved effort here last time when beaten 6.5l behind Minnie Hauk (1m2f, good); that was a step in the right direction but it's still hard to see him playing any major role.
