REALM STRONG IN OAK TREE.

Regal Realm finished best of all to win a competitive Oak Tree Stakes at Glorious Goodwood for Jeremy Noseda and Ryan Moore.

The Group Three contest centred around Godolphin's filly Gamilati, who was making a belated return to a British racecourse having impressed twice in Dubai during the winter.

She was the 9-4 favourite for this first start since February but could not pick up in the straight and finished well down the field.

Regal Realm mixed it in top company as a juvenile, but having not been seen since finishing second-last in the Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket in April, she was a 10-1 shot for this seven-furlong test.
JOHNSTON STRIKES WITH FULBRIGHT.

Mark Johnston secured his fifth winner of the week as Fulbright and Silvestre de Sousa claimed the Betfred Mile at Glorious Goodwood.

Turned out under a penalty having edged a six-furlong handicap at Newmarket last weekend, the 7-1 chance was tackling this distance for the first time in his career.

The Brazilian rider was never too far off the pace and there was never really any doubt he would collect after he swept to the lead in the straight. Mabait came with a strong late run but was unable to reel in Fulbright, who ran out a decisive scorer by a length and a quarter.
