Irish Oaks: Lustrous in Curragh contention
Last Updated: 14/07/14 4:06pm
Ribblesdale Stakes runner-up Lustrous is still under consideration for Saturday's Darley Irish Oaks.
Richard Hannon's filly chased home Bracelet at Royal Ascot, and had previously won a Group Three at York.
But with the likes of Investec Oaks first and second Taghrooda and Tarfasha still engaged in the Curragh Classic over the weekend, Lustrous has an alternative option in the Listed Newsells Park Stud Stakes at Newmarket.
Hannon's father, Richard snr, said: "They are still talking about the Irish Oaks for her, but that's looking a really hot race."
