Lah Ti Dar to make reconnaissance trip to Epsom before Oaks challenge

Lah Ti Dar will have unfinished business to attend to when she arrives at Epsom on June 1 for the Investec Oaks, for which she is now clear favourite ahead of 1,000 Guineas third Happily after an ultimately convincing win in the Tweenhills Pretty Polly Stakes.

Lord and Lady Lloyd Webber's Watership Down Stud has had some top fillies, but the Oaks has not been their race and it pained John Gosden to rake over the coals of the past.

Gosden, who won the Pretty Polly in 2014 with subsequent Oaks winner Taghrooda, recalled: "The Fugue got knocked over and should have won the Oaks, so that was an unpleasant experience, and this filly's poor little sister So Mi Dar won the Musidora by five lengths and then came up with a little tibia problem, so it hasn't been a lucky race. Let's not talk about that."
