Euchen Glen caused a big surprise in the Betsafe Cumberland Lodge Stakes as he stormed to victory after a disappointing display from Logician.
Logician was the 1/3 favourite for the Group Three race that should have taken place at Ascot, but the meeting was waterlogged last weekend.
Jim Goldie's Euchen Glen took full advantage as he recorded another famous win on the Knavesmire, having won the John Smith's Cup back in 2018.
Euchen Glen was on the sidelines for over 700 days before returning in June, and he went off at 18/1 after just one win in his last seven outings.
However, jockey Paul Mulrennan delivered a fine ride, and Goldie was left celebrating after a stunning display.
He told reporters: “I would say that was a masterclass in riding. As Baldrick would say, we had a cunning plan, and I can't believe how well it went. We thought we'd try to bring the field across to the rail as it complicates things, it gives the jockeys a decision to make, and it worked a treat.
“To take a scalp like that is great. Some thought it pie in the sky against a superstar, but Paul was up for it, and so was I.
“The horse we beat is probably rated similar to us, and it looks like the favourite hasn't turned up. Our horse is a superstar, and Paul gets a great tune out of him.”
