Tuesday wins the Oaks in a thriller over Emily Upjohn (who blew the start).

Bet Frankie wishes he could have a do-over on that ride.

Best horse has got beat .

Tuesday will never beat Emily Upjohn if they ever meet again.

Frankie blaming himself saying he should have won.

Hollie Doyle came 3rd on Naswa didnt stay.

Hopefully a rematch in the Irish Oaks

Ive watched the race over and over again and just my opinion i dont think he lost the race at the start, they were racing side by side for most of the race then 2 furlongs out Ryan Moore went for home Frankie let Tuesday get first run on him.

Just my Thoughts

I got to see a replay of the stretch drive and, wow, that was a helluva duel between two excellent fillies. Not sure if it was the camera angle, but Tuesday looks tiny...much smaller than Emily. In an interview with O'Brien after the race, he said that Tuesday was a late foal and just turned three today. I look forward to seeing how she progresses as she matures more.

Rough start to the day for William Buick.

Derby Day drama! William Buick, on leading fancy Blue Trail, is head-butted by Approachability and is left in the stalls before the first race at @EpsomRacecourse

Desert Crown wins the Epsom Derby always tracking the pace, showed a brilliant turn of foot at the 2 pole and race was over.

He's a star

Desert Crown cruises to win the Derby easily. Happy to see Sir Michael Stoute win his sixth Derby.

I watched the last couple of furlongs…I think Emily had every chance to get by, but she stalled a bit in the last furlong before surging again. Tuesday was extremely game.

I can not believe the starter let the field go while Buick was clearly unready. That is just.... :shock: :evil:
An American starting crew, with handlers inside the stalls, would not have let that happen.

I've also heard that post times are very relative in Europe.

I was a bit surprised but glad to see Oisin in that picture.
I strongly hope that he will win the fight against addiction.

Desert Crown looked to be much the best today.

Who does everyone like in the French Derby?
