Alexandrova wins Irish Oaks

Kieren Fallon did what he does best as he guided Alexandrova to a hugely impressive victory in the Darley Irish Oaks at the Curragh.

The six-times champion rode a supremely confident race on the Aidan O’Brien-trained 8-15 favourite, sitting in last place before weaving through the field to take up he running inside the final furlong.
