Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 21, 2019 Journalists Share Posted July 21, 2019 G1SW Pretty Pollyanna (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) will bid for a second Group 1 victory at Deauville next month in the Prix Maurice de Gheest on Aug. 4. Michael Bell’s filly claimed top-level honours in the Prix Morny at the Normandy circuit last summer. The daughter of Oasis Dream emerged with plenty of credit when runner-up in the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas on her seasonal reappearance–and although she then finished down the field in the G1 Coronation S. at Royal Ascot, she bounced back to be fourth in last weekend’s G1 July Cup at Newmarket. Bell said, “It was a very good run in the July Cup, and the plan is the Maurice de Gheest. She obviously likes Deauville, and that is the plan as we stand. The unfortunate thing in the July Cup was that she missed the break so badly. That didn’t help–and although I’m not saying she would have beaten the winner, she would have been two or three lengths closer.
