Magical (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), a winner of the G2 Debutante S. for Coolmore as a juvenile, will have to pass a late fitness test before being given the green light to run in the June 1 G1 Investec Oaks after suffering a setback. Aidan O’Brien’s filly is the general second favourite for the Epsom Classic on Friday, behind the Charlie Appleby-trained Wild Illusion (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), but her participation could now be in doubt.

“She just gave herself a little bit of a tip on the inside of her joint this morning,” said O’Brien of the G1 Moyglare Stud S. runner-up. “There was a little bit of filling in it this morning but it scanned perfect and we’re going to make a decision about her in the morning. The filling has to be gone out of it in the morning and we’re cooling it at the moment. Hopefully it will be gone and if it is there won’t be a problem.”

Magical, who was fourth in the G1 Fillies’ Mile at Newmarket to end her 2-year-old season on Oct. 13, resumed with another fourth-place effort in the G3 Prix de la Grotte across the Channel at ParisLongchamp on Apr. 15.
