AL HUSN picks off dual G1 winner Nashwa in the closing stages to land the G3 Hoppings Stakes in a thriller of a finish!
The four-year-old Shadwell homebred just keeps getting better, with a resume that now reads 6 from 9, including the Listed Rothesay Stakes at Ayr last time out. Jim Crowley had her handily positioned throughout this evenings 1m2f G3 contest, slipping her up the inside rail along the home straight and timing it perfectly to snatch victory from the dual G1-winning Nashwa.
Congratulations to Sheikha Hissa and Shadwell Stud.
