As is often the case with a small field the BostonAccess Supporting Console Fillies Race was a bit of a messy affair but there wasn't much arguing with the outcome as Yulong Baoju prevailed under Fergal Lynch.
Eddie Lynam 's grey might have looked the first in trouble but she quickened well to lead early in the final furlong. From there the outsider of the field at 3/1 went on to defeat Colour Blue by a length and three parts.
Odds-on favourite, Bilderberg ended up in last place, a further two and a quarter lengths adrift.
Lynam stated: "It's good to get. You would wonder why a filly that was third in the Rockingham off a big weight was the rag of three.
"She did it well. They went no gallop and she quickened up well.
"It's good to get a winner for the owners (Zhang Yuesheng) as they are good supporters."
G.M.Lyons, trainer of Bilderberg, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his charge lost her action in running
