Fawn gains Oaks revenge

Peeping Fawn took her revenge on Light Shift with a comprehensive victory in the Darley Irish Oaks at the Curragh.

Aidan O’Brien’s filly had been beaten half a length by Henry Cecil’s charge in the Vodafone Oaks but made no mistake this time in the hands of super sub Johnny Murtagh, who replaced Kieren Fallon after he was forced to give up his rides following a fall at Longchamp.
