Frankie Dettori celebrates his big win on Enable

Enable under Frankie Dettori upset Rhododendron to claim the at Epsom on a rain-drenched Ladies Day.

Ryan Moore could not push the odds-on favourite out and was beaten out by four lengths.

Conditions were difficult after torrential rain and thunder broke out ahead of the start with spectators forced to head for cover.

Pocket Full Of Dreams had led early as the pace setter before Rhododendron came on strong but Enable under Frankie Dettori was too strong.

Daddys Lil Darling had been pulled from the race after bolting to the start, unshipping jockey Olivier Peslier.

"What a good filly," said Dettori of Enable before performing his signature flying dismount in the winner's enclosure on a drizzly Epsom.
