Rising Star Aimed At Oaks Trials

Jack Channon trainers Gather Ye Rosebuds | Tattersalls

'TDN Rising Star' Gather Ye Rosebuds (GB) (Zoffany {Ire}), who blitzed a field by 9 1/2 lengths at Newbury will be pointed at one of the Oaks trials at Lingfield or Newbury later this month, according to handler Jack Channon. The G1 Betfred Oaks is slated for June 2.

“She has come out of the race really well and she looks fantastic,” said Channon, who will run Caernarfon (GB) (Cityscape {GB}) in the G1 QIPCO 1000 Guineas on Sunday, of the Mrs. P. Shanahan and Emily Magnier-owned filly. “I'm really happy with the way she is progressing.

“We will probably have a look at one of the Oaks trials, maybe Lingfield [on Saturday week] or Newbury [Fillies' Trial S., May 20], I would have thought, in a couple of weeks' time.

“She is in great form and we will aim her at one of those, I should think.”
