Epsom Oaks Betting Guide

The Epsom Oaks completes what is one of the biggest racing weekends of the season. The Sunday of the Oaks gives the punters the opportunity to double up on their winnings from the Derby or get back some of their losses. Similar to the Derby the Oaks betting is a year long affair for the online bookmakers as there is such an interest from the betting public. Oaks tips are common place in the run up to the race day as everyone seems to think they have the answer to selecting the winner to this race.

The Oaks is run over the same course as the Derby and holds the same difficulties for the girls as it does for the boys.

The first race at the Downs took place in 1661 and continued until the summer of 1779 when the Oaks and Derby became a reality due to Edward Smith Stanley, the 12th Earl of Derby, who organised a race for himself and his friends to race their three-year-old fillies over one and a half miles. He named it the Oaks after his estate. The race became so successful that the following year a new race was added for colts and fillies.
