Love Pointing to Yorkshire Oaks

[Wandering Eyes]

Dual Classic heroine Love (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) will skip the G1 Irish Oaks and instead point for the G1 Yorkshire Oaks in August, Racing Post reported on Monday. The Aidan O’Brien pupil, who won the G1 QIPCO 1000 Guineas at Newmarket in June and the G1 Investec Oaks at Epsom on July 4, will then target the G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.

“Love doesn’t run this weekend,” O’Brien told Racing Post. “She is perfect. What we are thinking at the moment is that she probably going to go straight to York for the Yorkshire Oaks, and then on to the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe after that.”

“We are going to run Ennistymon (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), and Passion (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who also ran at Epsom,” O’Brien said of his Irish Oaks fillies. “We’re also planning on running Laburnum (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who was just beaten in an Oaks trial at Naas, as well as Snow (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who won the Oaks trial at Cork.”
