Taking a look at the 1000 Guineas winner Winter we see a horse that many either believe is going to opt for another race - likely the Irish 1000 Guineas at Leopardstown which runs just a handful of days before the Epsom Oaks - or that she simply doesn’t have the muster to handle the additional four panels with the ease she handled the mile at Newmarket.

RIght now, you’ll find most bookmakers pricing her anywhere from a 16/1 all the way up to a 25/1 margin.
She had looked a different horse after winning the maiden score at Dundalk and the subsequent purchase and move from the yard of David Wachman over to Aiden O’Brien.
Beaten by a mere head by the very respected Hydrangea at Leopardstown on seasonal debut she was able to showcase her skill at the mile distance and the added panel proved to be decisive as she powered by Rhododendron to capture the Guineas by a full two length margin.
Other notables in the contest include the likes of Ralph Beckett’s Isabel De Urbina while Aiden O’Brien may also send out the 25/1 selection Rain Goddess for some pace in the race. Godolphin have Bean Feasa in the mix at a margin of anywhere from 20/1 up to 33/1.
It’s also worth noting that Hydrangea is trading anywhere from 20/1 all the way up to 33s as well.
