Darley Irish Oaks – John Gosden and Frankie Dettori set to bid for Oaks double with Enable at the Curragh
Enable is also set to be reunited with Frankie Dettori who will make his comeback from injury at Newmarket this week after he missed Royal Ascot
EPSOM Oaks heroine Enable remains on course to bid for a Classic double in the Darley Irish Oaks at the Curragh on Saturday.
John Gosden's filly was a brilliant winner at Epsom, seeing off Aidan O'Brien's red-hot favourite Rhododendron by an emphatic five lengths.
She has had over a month to recover from those exertions and Gosden is looking forward to seeing if she can become the first filly to complete the English-Irish Oaks double since Ed Dunlop's Snow Fairy seven years ago.
Gosden said: "Enable is in good form. We have freshened her up after the Oaks at Epsom and she is building up nicely for the Irish Oaks at the Curragh.
"I've been happy enough with her and the plan always was to go to the Curragh after she won at Epsom.
"She hasn't been over raced. She was impressive at Chester and Epsom.
";We are hopeful that she is very much going in the right direction."
Gosden could yet be double-handed, with Ribblesdale Stakes winner Coronet set to be left in at the confirmation stage.
He added: "I'm leaving Coronet in at this stage. She won a Ribblesdale in good order.
"She got free late and finished very strongly and I'll obviously discuss matters with the owners.
"We will have another look after Tuesday's confirmation stage."
Frankie Dettori is set to be on board Enable once more as he is due to return from an injury that ruled him out of Royal Ascot at Newmarket this week.
"I'll be back on Thursday and fingers crossed it should be all systems go for the Curragh on Saturday," said Dettori.
"Enable is a lovely mare, she won a Classic by five lengths and the obvious choice of race was the Irish Oaks."
