Tapestry & Bracelet set for Epsom Oaks Aidan O'Brien is hoping Tapestry can put her disappointing Qipco 1000 Guineas effort behind her if she recovers in time for a second shot at Classic glory in the Investec Oaks at Epsom on June 6th. The Galileo filly was sent off favourite for her seasonal reappearance on the Rowley Mile, but trailed home a well-beaten last of 17 runners, and the Ballydoyle handler immediately blamed himself for doing too much with his filly before Newmarket. O'Brien said: "As I've said she was just light enough for the Guineas. She's put on some weight and will possibly make it back for the Oaks." He added: "She was dallying along great (before Newmarket) but I worked her with Bracelet and I probably shouldn't have. After that she dropped a little too much weight." Bracelet fared only slightly better in the Guineas, but she too is likely to benefit from a step up in trip at Epsom. "Ryan (Moore) said she wants a mile and a quarter and a mile and a half. We thought she had a bit more pace than she has," said O'Brien. "She'll step up in trip and be trained for the Oaks."
