Oaks Heroine Thundering On Electric In The Blandford

Wait 5 sec.

Highwayman's G1 St Leger victory was the standout highlight for Joseph O'Brien while the trainer's runners fired blanks through Saturday's nine-race Leopardstown card. However, the Owning Hill stable bounced back in style at the Curragh on Sunday as Shapoor Mistry's homebred G1 Oaks heroine Thundering On (Frankel) regained the winning habit in the G2 Moyglare Jewels Blandford Stakes.She followed in the hoofprints of TDN Rising Stars Folsom Blues (Blue Point) and Star Of State (State Of Rest), who made impacts of their own in the G1 Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes and Tattersalls Ireland Super Auction Sales Stakes.The 5-4 favourite, last seen running fourth in June's G1 Pretty Polly over this 10-furlong strip, allowed the leaders plenty of rope and raced several lengths off the pace in rear through the early fractions.Remaining off the radar until straightening for home, she powered forward on the bridle to challenge out wide entering the final furlong and unleashed a telling burst from there to easily defeat Lilt (Lope De Vega) and TDN Rising Star Red Letter (Frankel) by 1 1/2 lengths and a nose. Back.
