Thundering On powers clear for brilliant Oaks victory

By Racing TV

Last Updated: Fri 5 Jun 2026

Thundering on came from last to first to land the Betfred Oaks in seriously impressive fashion at Epsom.

Sent off at 5-1 in the hands of Irish champion jockey Dylan Browne McMonagle, the Joseph O’Brien-trained Thundering On was anchored in rear in the opening exchanges but the eye was drawn to the Frankel filly as the challengers began to fall away up the famous home straight.

McMonagle remained motionless as he breezed alongside John and Thady Gosden’s eventual runner-up Legacy Link at the furlong marker and when the button was pushed she careered away for a commanding three-and-three-quarter-length success.
