Racing: Aidan O'Brien will field six fillies as he goes in search of a third successive Darley Irish Oaks at the Curragh on Sunday.
The Ballydoyle team will be fronted by Moonstone who has yet to win, but finished a creditable second to Look Here in the English equivalent of the 12-furlong Classic last month.
O'Brien will also be represented by Adored, Gentle On My Mind, Honoria, Perihelion and Ice Queen as he bids to add to the recent wins of Alexandrova (2006) and Peeping Fawn (2007).
Ice Queen could finish only sixth at the highest level in the Pretty Polly Stakes last time, a race in which Dermot Weld's Mad About You took second behind Promising Lead.
Weld's charge is still seeking her first win in Group One company but has not been out of the frame in her last four races at the top table and returns to her own age group. She will be joined by stablemate Chinese White, a disappointment in the Oaks at Epsom, while Jim Bolger relies on Prima Luce.
John Oxx saw Katiyra finish third behind Look Here on the Downs in June and will be hoping his filly can go two places better. French interest focuses on Andre Fabre's Gagnoa, second to Zarkava in the Prix de Diane last time, while Festival Princess, Rosa Grace and Silk Affair complete the 14-runner line-up.
