Inis Mor to be kept in top company after French Oaks

French Oaks third Inis Mor has a range of options with a return to Goodwood for the Group One Nassau Stakes high on the list of likely targets, according to trainer David Menuisier.

The Galiway filly won the Listed Height Of Fashion Stakes at the Sussex track last month, beating subsequent Ribblesdale Stakes heroine Earth Shot.

However, she stepped up on that significantly with an excellent third in the Prix de Diane at Chantilly behind Diamond Necklace last time out, a run which gave connections a multitude of options later this summer..

Menuisier said: “Obviously we have several options of which the Nassau could be one. There is the Prix Jean Romanet (August 23), the Nassau (July 30) then the Yorkshire Oaks (August 20), the Vermeille (September 6) and on to the Fillies and Mares in October (17) or the Prix de l’Opera (October 4).

“Personally I would prefer to keep her to 10 furlongs for now but she may stay down the line and we may choose to step her up in trip. She shows a tremendous amount of pace in her races and. All options remain open.”
