Tuesday denies Emily Upjohn in thrilling renewal of the Cazoo Oaks

Aidan O’Brien is one of the greatest modern day trainers and he now holds the record for most British Classics of all time. Tuesday gave him his 41st British Classic after clinching an exciting renewal in the Cazoo Oaks.

Clear favourite, Emily Uphjohn, appeared to slip out the starting stalls and was consequently left at the back of the field. Despite an extraordinary recover throughout the race, the favourite was held off by the Ballydoyle filly on the line.

Frankie Dettori nurtured Emily Upjohn into the race and opted for the stands side, and appeared to head Tuesday inside the final furlong. However, Ryan Moore’s mount bounced back to fight off her rival and win by a short head.

Trainer Aidan O’Brien surpassed John Scott’s record of 41 wins, registered between 1827 and 1863.
