Hills: Sights set on the Oaks
Sugar Mint is set to run in the Juddamonte Oaks at Epsom following her fine run at Chester.
The High Chaparral filly finished second in the Cheshire Oaks, where she was beaten half a length by the Aidan O'Brien-trained Sail after being overtaken inside the final furlong.
Sugar Mint also finished an impressive fourth in last season's May Hill Stakes, while holds a win over Duntulm.
And Sugar Mint will be given a little extra help when it comes to her assault on Epsom.
"All being well she will definitely run in the Oaks where she'll wear a tongue-strap, as she swallowed her tongue last time," said trainer Barry Hills.
