O'Brien: Not out of the question Moore opts for Delacroix in the Eclipse
Camille Pissarro is slightly shorter than his stablemate in the sponsor's betting, with Coral going 13-2 about the Chantilly Classic winner and 8-1 Delacroix, who will bid to bounce back from Epsom disappointment. Speaking at Tipperary on Wednesday evening, O'Brien suggested the Ballydoyle number one was yet to make the final call on who he will ride: 'We are declaring in the morning, and it looks like Delacroix and Camille Pissarro are going to go. That's what the lads are thinking. 'It is not written in stone, but there is a chance Ryan could ride Delacroix, we'll see.' O'Brien also provided updates on dual Derby hero Lambourn and Pretty Polly scorer Whirl after both excelled in the feature events at the Curragh last weekend. Options remain fluid for Lambourn, who could set out on a path to add to his Classic haul at Doncaster in September, or take on his elders in Ascot's King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes. Meanwhile, Oaks heroine Minnie Hauk could be left to replicate Lambourn by following up Epsom victory at the Curragh, meaning Whirl remains at 10 furlongs for the Nassau Stakes during the Qatar Goodwood Festival. 'Lambourn hasn't done anything since Sunday and probably won't for seven to 10 days,' continued O'Brien. 'His options are to be trained for the King George or have a little rest and maybe go for a Voltigeur and a St Leger, but we'll see what the lads want to do. He's a hardy customer, a brave horse. 'We are thinking of the Nassau for Whirl and she's a hardy lady too. She could go there, and Minnie Hauk will be trained for the Irish Oaks. '(Ribblesdale Stakes winner) Garden Of Eden could also be trained for the Irish Oaks.'
