Four Sins is in great form ahead of her bid to win the Group 1 Epsom Oaks, according to County Kildare trainer John Oxx.
The fast-improving three-year-old, due to be ridden by big-race ace Mick Kinane, came to prominence in the Oaks' betting courtesy of a most impressive victory in the 1m2f Blue Wind Stakes at Naas.
"We had some worries about the track (Epsom), but she is so well at the moment you'd be slow to leave her at home. We wouldn't like it to remain soft, we just hope it dries out to good to soft, which she won on last time at Naas," explained Oxx.
"She is in great form and coming to her peak so we have to let her take her chance. She won going away (in the Blue Wind) and should stay the distance well," he added.
Henry Cecil's Passage of Time (2.88) continues to head the Betfair Oaks market, with second favouritism hotly-disputed between Cecil's other runner, Light Shift (8.6), Ed Dunlop's Dalvina (9.2), and Four Sins, who is available at 10.5.
