FLAVOUR MAKER gets up on the line to win in a dead heat under Ray Dawson.

The three-year-old has hit the frame on a couple of occasions, and we were delighted to see him shed his maiden tag this evening. Handily positioned on the inside rail, he chased race leaders Zinchenko and Super Hit through the opening stages. As they passed the cutaway, Thorntonledale Max drew up the inside but Flavour Maker responded gamely under Ray, battling back inside the final furlong to draw level at the line and share the spoils in a dead-heat finish.

Congratulations to Opulence Thoroughbreds and connections!
