FormscanBy Mark Nunan - We’ll stick with Classic form here and CAYENNE PEPPER can go one place better after finishing runner-up in the Irish Oaks. Sent off favourite, she had a spell in the lead early in the straight before being outpaced late on by Even So. Jessica Harrington’s filly seemed to get the trip well enough and she can confirm form with Passion, who appeared to show improved form in third after meeting some trouble in running. Tarnawa’s win in this race last year was one of four achieved by the progressive daughter of Shamardal in 2019 and she escapes a penalty for her seasonal reappearance. She’s very much respected, and there could be more to come from Leopardstown Listed winner Bolleville. Snapraeceps and Loveisthehigherlaw were placed here in the Munster Oaks and may again have to settle for minor honours at best.
