Racing:  English Oaks winner Light Shift could exact revenge upon the Aidan O'Brien-trained Peeping Fawn at Goodwood next month.

O'Brien's charge came out on top at the Curragh when winning Sunday's Irish Oaks by three and a half lengths on testing ground.

Peeping Fawn finished second to Henry Cecil's Light Shift at Epsom, however, and could renew rivalry in the Blue Square Nassau Stakes at Goodwood on August 4th.

"She's not a machine so I can't say for definite where she will run next," Cecil told the Racing Post.

"But if she's okay to run at Goodwood she will go for the Nassau and if she's not ready in time for Goodwood, she will wait for the Yorkshire Oaks.

"She's fine over a mile and a quarter and the course at Goodwood would suit her.  If the two fillies meet again in the Nassau there shouldn't be a lot between them.
