Oaks heroine Was and top juvenile Maybe have both been ruled out of this afternoon's Barclays Bank Ireland Pretty Polly Stakes at the Curragh.

The Aidan O'Brien-trained pair were among the leading hopes for the Group 1 feature after Was claimed the Oaks at Epsom earlier in the month, with Maybe a close-up fifth.

However, despite Camelot's win on unsuitably heavy ground in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby yesterday evening, O'Brien has opted not to risk his fillies.

His wife Annemarie tweeted: "Maybe and Was are both non runners at the Curragh today due to ground conditions."

O'Brien still has one runner in the shape of Up who was last seen finishing seventh in the French Oaks.

However just four will go to post for the mile and a quarter event as the Jessica Harrington-trained Bible Belt is also an absentee.
