Michael Bell joined an exclusive club of trainers who have won both Epsom classics when Sariska added the Oaks to Motivator's 2005 Derby triumph. Ridden by Jamie Spencer the 9-4 favourite battled hard up the straight to hold off Midday, who was seeking to provide her trainer Henry Cecil with a ninth Oaks triumph. The result was only confirmed after a lengthy stewards' inquiry after scrimmaging which resulted in Spencer receiving a five-day ban for careless riding. Sariska hit the front shortly after the field rounded Tattenham Corner and had enough strength to fend off Midday's determined challenge by a head. The 33-1 outsider High Heeled came in third, two-and-a-half lengths further back. Bell said: 'I think there are only a few licensed trainers to have won the Derby and Oaks, and it is great to join that club. 'She has the physical attributes, the temperament and natural gears so she ticks all of the boxes. 'She is the most gorgeous looking horse. 'It is easy planning for a good filly like her, and the Irish Oaks and Yorkshire Oaks are two immediate possibilities.' Cecil was his usual dignified self in defeat. 'We did lose a length or two because the other horses were coming back on us but the other one (Sariska) was holding us at the finish so I'm not offering any excuses. 'The chips were down at the end and she's still run a good race.'
