Verdict

This should be straightforward for MINNIE HAUK, who can emulate Alexandrova and Snowfall and become the third Aidan O'Brien-trained filly to complete the Oaks/Irish Oaks double. Wemightakedlongway, who was 5¼ lengths behind the selection in fourth at Epsom, is the obvious one to follow her home.
