THUNDERING ON was below expectations in the Pretty Polly but she has to be given another chance to build on an exceptional performance when winning the Oaks at Epsom. Ribblesdale 1-2 Earth Shot and Johanna Walsh are both going the right way and may be best placed to capitalise if the favourite fails to fire.
