Epsom (United Kingdom) (AFP) – Thundering On won the Epsom Oaks on Friday in impressive fashion to give two-time Melbourne Cup-winning trainer Joseph O'Brien his second classic success in England.

Dylan Browne McMonagle gave the winner a superb ride and once he asked the Irish runner to accelerate, she breezed past Legacy Link to win at odds of 5/1.

Legacy Link was second at 3/1 whilst Joseph's father Aidan trained the third, Sugar Island (25/1).

However, O'Brien senior's race favourite Amelia Earhart proved a huge disappointment, fading badly in the finishing straight to end up sixth out of the nine runners.
