Epsom Oaks: Banoffee added to fillies' Classic line-up

Hughie Morrison's unbeaten filly Banoffee has been supplemented to the field at a cost of £30,000 as 12 horses go forward for the Oaks at Epsom.

Secret Gesture and Moth head entries for Friday's mile-and-a-half Classic on day one of the Derby meeting.

There were three withdrawals at the latest entry stage - Dubaya, Masarah & Planete Bleue.

Banoffee impressed when winning the Cheshire Oaks at Chester under six-time champion jockey Kieren Fallon.

A general 8-1 chance, she joins contenders which include Lingfield winner Secret Gesture, Sir Michael Stoute's winter favourite Liber Nauticus, plus Moth, Say and Snow Queen for Aidan O'Brien.

Michael Bell has kept in his pair The Lark and Madame Defarge, while Talent - a stablemate of Secret Gesture - Miss You Too, Gertrude Versed and Roz complete the line-up at this stage.
