Irish Oaks runner-up Content is likely to be aimed at the Breeders Cup Fillies And Mares, with the possibility of at least one outing prior to a trip stateside.
Sent off 3/1f to give trainer Aidan O'Brien another Irish classic, the daughter of Galileo stayed on strongly close home to take minor honours behind You Got To Me.
Speaking at the Curragh on Saturday, O'Brien said: “I was delighted with her run. It wasn’t for us this year and we’ve been second in the Oaks a lot of times.
“She probably won’t go to Goodwood as the Justify filly (Opera Singer) will probably go there.
“She may not go to York as Jackie Oh who runs here tomorrow, might be going for the Yorkshire Oaks.
“Ryan said she’s made for America, the Fillies and Mares, and may have one more run before then.
“Port Fairy was disappointing and may not be a complete slogger. She might be comfortable going back to a mile and a quarter.”
