The son of Alhebayeb edged left in the closing stages, checking runner-up Calling Time which in turn hampered third-placed Phoenix Open and while a Stewards' Enquiry was later called, the result was left stand.
Kelly steered Yuften to a Claimer success at the venue on Wednesday and following his later success said “it's been a great week and a few more weeks like that coming up to Santy will do!
“I got him out of the gates, which was a big thing with him, and got him into a good possy.
