Connections of Nashwa don’t seem to be ruling out the potential of the Cazoo Oaks 3rd creating a somewhat swift go back to motion for the Prix de Diane at Chantilly later this month.
So spectacular in profitable at Haydock and Newbury this spring, John and Thady Gosden’s Frankel filly was once neatly fancied to supply jockey Hollie Doyle with a primary Vintage luck at Epsom on Friday.
However whilst she travelled into the race strongly, Nashwa’s effort rather faltered past due on and she or he was once crushed simply over 3 lengths by means of the Aidan O’Brien-trained Tuesday, with fellow Gosden runner Emily Upjohn denied by means of a brief head in 2nd after blowing the beginning.
Nashwa seems set to drop again to a mile and 1 / 4 on her subsequent get started, with the French Oaks on June 19 – which comes simply 16 days after her Epsom trip – the following imaginable choice.
Teddy Grimthorpe, racing supervisor to proprietor Imad Al Sagar, stated: “I feel we are all overjoyed together with her and I feel she ran a perfect race. Hollie gave her a perfect trip, she had each probability and more than likely simply did not keep out the final little bit.
“She’ll more than likely drop again now to ten furlongs and we will believe the choices. Clearly the primary imaginable ones are the Prix de Diane and after that the Nassau.
“I feel we will be having a look alongside the ones traces, relying on how she comes out of the race.
“She is going to be a perfect prospect for the longer term.”
