Epsom Oaks Trials 2012

Below is a list of featured trial races that have had a bearing on the Epsom Oaks, these races should be followed but punters should not necessarily look at the winners of them. Instead look to see who was finishing quickly at the end, or who had run well but not necessarily been handled well. The trials are an excellent guide to the Epsom Oaks form of the runners.

Above all it is important to read the trainers and jockey’s comments after each race. They often give the biggest hint of all as to the form and the chances of their horses and all the Epsom Oaks Runners.
