Pictavia, who finished strongly behind Eswarah in the Oaks at Epsom last week, will now contest the Irish equivalent at the Curragh in July it has been confirmed. Trainer Jim Bolger has opted not to run her in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot next week in favour of the Fillies Classic in Ireland. In France, The Aga Khan's Vadawina is a serious contender for this Sunday's Prix de Diane (the French Oaks), where she will face Divine Proportions in what promises to be a thrilling race.
