FormscanBy Alan Magee - ENNISTYMON gets the vote to provide Aidan O’Brien with a sixth victory in the Irish Oaks. The daughter of Galileo ran just once as a juvenile but is making up for lost time since the resumption of racing last month. She narrowly won a Leopardstown maiden but has improved in leaps and bounds since, filling the runner-up spot in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot and again behind impressive stablemate Love in the Investec Oaks at Epsom. Cayenne Pepper rates a serious threat. She looked a middle distance filly in the making as a juvenile when landing a Group 2 over a mile, and filled the runner-up spot on her reappearance behind the long odds-on Magical in the Pretty Polly Stakes. Even So and Laburnum fought out an exciting finish in the Oaks Trial at Naas and Ger Lyons’ charge is expected to appreciate the extra quarter mile. New York Girl didn’t make much impact when supplemented for 50,000 into the Irish Derby.
