Tuesday fought tenaciously to hold off the fast finishing favourite Emily Upjohn to win the 2022 Cazoon Oaks at Epsom.

The win was a 10th success in the race for trainer Aidan O’Brien, with the daughter of Galileo being ridden by Ryan Moore.

Tuesday, who is three-years-old today, is out of Lilly Langtry, making her a full sister to Minding, the top-rated filly of 2016 worldwide.

Emily Upjohn, the runner-up by a short-head under Frankie Dettori, was unlucky in the Epsom Classic, as she stumbled exiting the starting stalls, meaning she was last after a furlong.

The John and Thady Gosden-trained filly made progress throughout the 1 m 4 furlong contest, but Tuesday had first run on the her in the home straight, and would not be denied at the line.

The Cazoo Oaks victory for Aidan O’Brien was a record 41st British Classic success for the Ballydoyle handler, surpassing the John Scott, who trained between 1827 and 1863.

English handler John Gosden has stated his Cazoo Oaks favourite this afternoon Emily Upjohn may be in the same league as his first winner in the race, Taghrooda.

The unbeaten Sea The Stars filly following up victory on her only start as a two year old with wins at Sandown Park in April and in the Tattersalls Musidora Stakes at York last month.

Gosden, whose training license is with his son Thady, has three Oaks winners to his name – Taghrooda in 2014, Enable in 2017 and Anapurna in 2019.

Asked to compare Emily Upjohn to his three previous winners, Gosden said:

“I think she is in the Taghrooda league. It would be silly to start talking about Enable as that would be completely over the top.

“It is her ability to travel and quicken over a trip that reminds me of Taghrooda. She is a big girl and she was immature and wasn’t ready to run until later in the year.”

Explaining his reasons for bringing Emily Upjohn to Epsom Downs to experience the unique track for the recent Cazoo Derby Gallops Morning, Gosden stated:

“Frankie (Dettori, jockey) felt that for a filly who has had three races in her life it would be nice to come here and just have a look and feel of the track, which is all that you are doing as you are not trying to do any exploratory work.

“She behaved great, moved very well, got her leads right coming down the hill and quickened up nicely. I think she will come on a lot for that mentally. She is not a filly who raced a lot at two as she only had the one run at Wolverhampton, but you can see by the size of the frame of her why we were patient.

“She has filled out well and she has rather enjoyed her morning out here. I would hope she has got the speed for the Oaks as she has shown an ability to quicken. The other day in the Musidora she quickened well there at York.

“She did it well at Wolverhampton and at Sandown she sat very handy, then lengthened off the front. She has a change of gear.”

There are 14 Irish-trained horses among the 31 that remain in the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown Park on Saturday 3rd July.

The 10-furlong contest forms part of the British Champions Series and is the first significant contest where those from the Classic generation take on their elders.

Heading the entries is Mishriff. The John and Thady Gosden-trained four year old landed last season’s French Derby. He has won both his starts so far in 2021, the Saudi Cup and the Dubai Sheema Classic.

St Mark’s Basilica is one of 13 remaining entries for Aidan O’Brien. The three year old Siyouni colt is a dual Classic winner in France this season. Last weekend, he won the Group One Prix du Jockey-Club at Chantilly.

The only other Irish trainer with a runner engaged is Jim Bolger. MacSwiney, the Tattersalls Irish 2000 Guineas winner is among the 31 remaining horses.

The five-day confirmation stage for the Coral-Eclipse is on Monday 28th June, when there is also a supplementary entry stage.

Jockey Frankie Dettori achieved another milestone on Friday securing his 70th Royal Ascot winner aboard Fanny Logan for trainer John Gosden.

Frankie came from last to first in the Hardwicke Stakes at the Berkshire venue. The win gave Fanny Logan another win to add to the impressive record. This includes winning three listed races, a group three last season and finishing 4th in the Breeders Cup in 2019.

This looked a tricky enough race and the odds of 17/2 suggested that Dettori would be up against it. However, the four year old proved that she was more than up for the task. Fanny Logan wasn’t to beat when she hacked up the ground from last to first. She held off Alounak who was a 40/1 shot for trainer Andrew Balding and Kerry jockey Oisin Murphy. Defoe was back in third for Roger Varian and jockey Andrea Atzeni.

Aidan O’Brien’s main hopeful in the race was former Investec Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck who was 9/4 and many people using bonus code for new customers at bet365 were getting 50euro free bets. However, Ryan Moore’s mount never got into the race. Subsequently wasn’t unable to get into a position to challenge the leaders.

Speaking to Racing TV, trainer John Gosden said of Fanny Logan’s win,

“It wasn’t a fluke. At Haydock I asked Rab (Havlin) to drop her out and she ran a lovely race to finish second and after it she had a good blow so we knew she’d come on for it”.

Frankie Dettori was delighted with his 70th Royal Ascot winner he said,”John gave me a lot of confidence as he said she came out of Haydock really well”. “I was further back than I wanted, but they started racing really early and by the time I got to the furlong marker they were all dead. She showed a good turn of foot.”It’s great to get 70 winner – now I want 71!”

In 1990, Dettori became the first teenager since Lester Piggott to ride 100 winners in one season. His first win came at the age of 16 in Turin in November 1986, while his first victory in Britain was the following June. Further success followed, with numerous winners in Group 1 races. On 28 September 1996 he achieved the feat of winning all seven races on a single day at Ascot Racecourse.

On 1 June 2000, Dettori was injured when the Piper Seneca on which he was traveling crashed near Newmarket. A police spokesman commented “It would certainly seem to be a miracle that anyone got out of the crash alive” On 29 December of the same year he received an honorary MBE.
