Horse Racing: 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 favorite 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.

Earlier Scorpion (8-1), winner of the 2005 St Leger, bounced back to his sparkling best with a thrilling display in the Vodafone Coronation Cup.

Settled in second behind stable companion Septimus, Aidan O'Brien's charge picked up in great style when asked for his effort by Mick Kinane. He passed the line one and a quarter lengths clear of Septimus, with Maraahel third.

But both last year's Derby winner Sir Percy and St Leger winner Sixties Icon were desperately disappointing.
