The placed horses from the Investec Oaks could clash in next week's Ribblesdale Stakes.

A total of 22 entries were revealed for the 12 furlong Group Two contest confined to fillies and a potentially mouth-watering renewal is in store at Royal Ascot.

The Fugue flashed home to finish third in the Investec Oaks at Epsom with many observers feeling that John Gosden's charge had suffered more than most in a rough race.

She could get the chance to put the record straight but could be set to re-oppose Epsom second, Shirocco Star, and fourth, the promising Vow.

To add further spice to the mix, a five strong Aidan O'Brien entry includes Kissed and Up although both are due to run in the French Oaks this weekend.

Two race maiden Beach Of Falesa Betterbetterbetter and Twirl are the other possible runners from Ballydoyle.

Michael Bell will be hoping for a Royal winner in The Queen's Momentary who beat Shirocco Star in a Newbury Listed contest last time on just her second career start.

Godolphin have supplemented Minidress with Mahmood Al Zarooni's Kailani in the running to line up alongside her stablemate while other interesting runners include Pink Damsel and Princess Highway.
