Princess Zoe sensationally landed the Group One Prix du Cadran at Longchamp last Saturday and going back through her form may provide the key to tomorrow's Irish Cesarewitch (3.40) at the Curragh. Walking On Glass is the only horse to hold a victory over Tony Mullins' magnificent mare on Irish soil after their meeting in a Navan handicap in June and Pádraig Roche's first reserve is a live outsider. Another with strong form tying in with Princess Zoe is Charles Byrnes' Run For Mary and the six-year-old mare has been kept fresh since chasing her home in the GPT at the Galway Festival. With 7lb claimer Sam Ewing firing in three winners in the past 10 days, she is the one to watch in the absence of Walking On Glass. Meanwhile, a challenging week for Aidan O'Brien took yet another bizarre twist yesterday when his Fillies' Mile duo of Mother Earth and Snowfall, which was officially handed third place, carried the wrong saddle cloths with the wrong jockey also aboard.
