com Galway Plate with Black Corton next week.

Frost has never raced in Galway but will team up with Black Corton again after their win in the bet365 Oaksey Chase with at Sandown in April.

The Grade One winner admits she has been taking advice on the course from her brother Hadden, as well as Ruby Walsh.

Black Corton’s trainer Paul Nicholls won the race back in 2008 with Oslot, ridden by Walsh, and Frost says she has been learning about the course from the pair.

‘I’ve never been there and never ridden in the race, but my brother has and I’ve heard a lot about it,’ she said.

‘I talked to Ruby at Royal Ascot as well, so I got a bit of an insight into what the race rides like.

‘He said it’s a bit different to the English way of riding.

The Irish ride a lot tighter, they are a lot more shrewd and they are going to watch us English come over, they definitely don’t give us an inch when we’re out there.

‘He might be small, but he’s definitely got a pair of elbows to shove out there on to other horses.

‘He’s tough and if he jumps and travels like he always has, then who knows what will happen.’
