FormscanBy John O'Riordan - OXFORD ROCK appears to have been presented with an ideal opportunity to open her account at the sixth time of asking. Runner-up on debut at Tipperary in May, the Joseph O'Brien-trained filly then finished a highly creditable seventh in the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot. Although failing to break her duck in three subsequent starts, the 85-rated juvenile warrants another chance in this company. Given the promise of his first two outings, it was somewhat disappointing that Turners Cross failed to beat a single rival at Naas last time. Assuming that wasn't his true running, the Jessica Harrington-trained colt should be more competitive here. Zambales is another contender from a leading yard who should be capable of better.
