Ballydoyle team buoyed by Oaks hopefuls

AIDAN O’BRIEN is anticipating bold shows from Wonder Of Wonders and Misty For Me in the Investec Oaks at Epsom today.

O’Brien has already trained Shahtoush (1998), Imagine (2001) and Alexandrova (2006) to win the Classic, and this time has four runners, with outsiders Eirnin and Why joining their better-fancied stable companions.

Wonder Of Wonders impressed when winning Chester’s Cheshire Oaks last month, while Misty For Me is on a Classic double having triumphed in the Irish 1,000 Guineas less than a fortnight ago.
