Tuesday: Salisbury

Hayley Turner continued her flying form in the saddle and trainer Harry Eustace's red-hot run when Mystical Applause landed the 6f novice stakes in brave fashion.

Turner, who was successful on Derby day aboard Swilcan Bridge, made it three winners from her last five rides with a neck success, while it took the Newmarket trainer's strike-rate to 43 per cent before Tuesday's evening action began.

Turner told Racing TV: "Harry's horses are going amazingly. He took his time with them at the beginning of the season when everyone has itchy feet and are desperate to run, but it's really paying off now.

"Mystical Applause did a barrier trial before his debut and when he ran at Leicester he was very professional. He pulled it all together and took a step forward today.

"Derby day was fun right from the start, it was great to have a winner there and it was a beautiful day."

Fine run

Rod Millman's winning streak rolled on as Devon Envoy stormed to victory in the 6f handicap.

The three-year-old was an impressive two-and-three-quarter-length winner and gave his trainer three wins on the bounce following victories at Windsor on Monday night and Chepstow on Saturday.

Millman's run ended when Hurricane Helen finished only third in the mile fillies' handicap.

Winning repeat

Trainer Laura Morgan's celebrations from a first victory at Epsom with 80-1 shot Bowman on Oaks day continued when Ascraeus repeated last year's victory in the mile fillies' handicap.

The five-year-old picked up her first victory since last year's success when scoring at 11-1 under Luke Morris.
