Enable Wins 12th Consecutive Victory at Yorkshire Oaks

With scenes of raw emotion, Frankie Dettori claimed his 14th Group One victory of the year, making him just 2 short of his personal best in the 2001 season. With such a formidable racing style the horse Enable claimed her 12th consecutive win in a row, really defining the mare as an all-time great of English racing. Dettori was overcome with emotion after crossing the line, as the bond between horse and jockey became more clear than ever.

An emotional Frankie Dettori said some epic words about his horse before making the trademark flying dismount:

This could be her last race in England. It is very special.-Frankie Dettori

This is not a common occurrence in horse racing, and many will not be used to seeing their favourite sports events being cancelled for the weather being too hot!

An excellent farewell to a great English champion

Enable marked the last race of her star-studded career with a comfortable victory in Yorkshire Oaks. The rapid mare has only been beaten once in the past three years and has raked in a massive £9.5m in prize money. This certainly gets the fires of excitement going around the paddocks of England, and a position for breeding will most certainly be taken up in an effort to raise the next breed of champion runners for English racing. Enable now has her future set on one more race, the Arc, Europe’s richest contest. The Saudi Arabian owner Prince Khalid Abdullah has made significant waves in the sport, owning Frankle, and now hoping to top his glory with Enable.
