Dylan Browne McMonagle has taken one of the biggest victories of his career winning the Epsom Oaks on Friday afternoon with a brilliant ride on the Joseph O’Brien trained Thundering On.
The Donegal Jockey guided the three year Philie from last to first in a stunning performance.
Having won the Irish St Ledger, it’s a second classic win for Dylan and a first English classic victory.
The McMonagle O’Brien partnership will be back with another opportunity in a classic on Saturday as James J Braddock is scheduled for the Epsom Derby.
WOW! Thundering On wins the Oaks! 😲
