Monday: Kempton

Tyrese Cameron was a new name in the winner's enclosure after landing his first success on Always Fearless.

The young jockey produced a gutsy, front-running performance worthy of the horse's name in division two of the mile handicap.

Cameron had not ridden in a race before September and he described the win as "a dream come true".

Speaking to Racing TV, he said: "It’s only my fourth ride in public. It’s amazing. I was on the course at the British Racing School this time last year. I did 12 weeks there and went straight to Mr [Richard] Hannon’s and everything’s gone up from there.”

Cool running

Cool Vixen produced a welcome victory for Robyn Brisland, getting off the mark for the trainer at her seventh attempt in division one of the mile handicap under David Probert.

Brisland said: “She was a good horse out in Ireland. We like taking horses from Ireland because they suit our style of training. A horse that has got proven ability over there always seems to do well here. We’re delighted the filly has got her head in front.”

Doyle treble

On a soggy afternoon the Listed Floodlit Stakes provided the card's feature and it was dominated by Godolphin, with the James Doyle-ridden Warren Point getting up to deny stablemate Wild Crusade.

It completed a treble for Keeneland-bound Doyle after wins on 1.45 million guineas debutante Whispering Romance and the George Boughey-trained Phantasy Mac.
