An amazing fourth consecutive Group One in eight weeks went the way of Peeping Fawn as Aidan O'Brien's iron lady thrashed her rivals in the Yorkshire Oaks.

Unraced as a two-year-old, the daughter of Danehill was scoring for the fifth time from 10 starts.

Johnny Murtagh brought her down the outside to take control two furlongs out and beat Goodwood Cup winner Allegretto by four lengths, with Trick Or Treat five lengths back in third.

O'Brien said the Arc was now "very possible" for Peeping Fawn.
