OH SO CHIC got back on track and ran up to her best when third in a big-field Fairyhouse handicap over shorter 3 days ago. The fitting of a visor may put an extra edge on Jessica Harrington's filly and she gets the nod tackling this longer trip. Last-time-out winner New Society and Stellify head up the dangers, ahead of The Abbey.
