Light Shift wins Vodafone Oaks

Light Shift, trained by Henry Cecil and ridden by Ted Durcan, has won the Vodafone Oaks at Epsom.

Light Shift (13/2) landed an emotional eighth success for Henry Cecil in the Vodafone Oaks at Epsom.

Despite saddling the unplaced hot favourite Passage Of Time, the resurgent Cecil still managed to add to his incredible list of British Classics with the Kingmambo filly.

Ted Durcan sent her to the front fully two furlongs out and she showed great determination to hold off Aidan O’Brien’s Peeping Fawn (20-1) by half a length, with the latter’s stable companion All My Loving another four lengths back in third.
