Choisya showed plenty of resolve to win the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Dick Hern Stakes at Haydock.
Simon and Ed Crisford’s course and distance winner was sent off at 14-1 for the Listed event in the hands of Harry Davies, despite showing plenty of promise when campaigned in deeper waters this term.
The four-year-old was pushed along to take the lead with over a furlong to run and responded gamely to her rider’s urgings to hold off the challenge of Ralph Beckett’s even-money favourite Indelible.
Choisya was a length and a half clear of Indelible at the finish, with Richard Spencer’s Valiant Stakes third Naomi Lapaglia filling the same spot.
