Finsceal Beo will tackle French 1,000 Guineas winner Darjina at the Royal Meeting later this month in what promises to be a mouth-watering renewal of the Coronation Stakes.
Jim Bolger's brilliant filly was denied a Classic treble by the Alain De Royer-Dupre three-year-old at Longchamp in May, but will be seeking her revenge in the Group One contest at Royal Ascot.
Having already bagged the English and Irish Guineas, it appears that connections have decided against stepping her up to a mile-and-a-quarter and will now aim for another top prize at the Berkshire track.
"Finsceal Beo is very well since the Curragh and she goes for the Coronation Stakes next," said Bolger.
Betfair backers are confident that she can win her rematch with Darjina, with the Irish superstar favourite for the event at 2.96. Darjina has been backed from a high of 17 on the Betfair ante-post market and is available to back at 4.3.
