Connections opt to miss French Oaks with Falakeyah
Despite working well on Tuesday morning, Burrows felt the French Classic at Chantilly was just coming at the wrong time for his unbeaten three-year-old, who needs a little longer to recuperate. Having bypassed the Oaks at Epsom to wait for France, her third Group One option of three after she won on her comeback at Newmarket was the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot. However, should connections decide on coming back to a mile next week, she would need to be supplemented. Angus Gold, racing manager for the filly's owners, Shadwell, said: 'She scoped dirty 10 days ago. 'We treated her and worked her this morning, she worked beautifully, we were all very happy, but Owen just said she had a decent blow having missed a crucial bit of work. 'It is hard enough to win a Classic when you are 110 per cent so we're not going to risk running her. 'We haven't got as far as discussing the next plan yet, but she won't be going to France, it's just bad timing.'
