▶The wrap up

As the sun shone through the clouds on this fresh crisp day, 71,000 avid racegoers gave up their day of work to head to Flemington to continue the ‘the celebration that stops a nation’ on Thursday 3 November 2011 for ‘the ultimate style day’, Crown Oaks Day, where the focus was not only on the fashions but on the fantastic day of racing, namely the Crown Oaks.

The $1 million Crown Oaks at Flemington didn't need boom filly Atlantic Jewel for a one-act affair, with Mosheen cruising to one of the easiest wins in the history of the 153-year-old classic.

Robert Smerdon's consistent daughter of Fastnet Rock peeled off a performance of which the Mark Kavanagh-trained Atlantic Jewel would have been proud, strolling home by nine lengths in the 2500-metre Group 1.

It was something of a bonus win for connections with Smerdon saying after the race that Mosheen would not have contested the Crown Oaks had Atlantic Jewel not have succumbed to a hamstring injury after her seven-length romp in Saturday's Wakeful Stakes at Flemington.

Mosheen, who was ridden by Danny Nikolic, atoned for Group 1 second placings in the Golden Slipper and the Schweppes Thousand Guineas to score the first elite-level win of her career.

She allayed fears she wouldn't run the Crown Oaks trip, after she over-raced when sixth in Saturday's Group 1 Myer Classic (1600m) on AAMI Victoria Derby Day, to settle beautifully and give jockey Nikolic a charmed ride. Kiwi filly Dowager Queen led home the chasing pack, one-and-a-quarter lengths clear of the David Hayes-trained Roma Giaconda.

The Bart Cummings-trained Gliding ruined her chances by over-racing in the middle stages and finished seventh, one spot in advance of Rahveel, who was poised to be a factor straightening after racing on the speed but dropped out in the run home.

Overall, this was yet another great Crown Oaks Day and racegoers were treated to the high quality racing that they have come to expect of the Melbourne Cup Carnival and at Flemington.
