'She won with a fair bit in hand again' - Blenheim Star follows up recent Ripon success for William Knight

Newmarket trainer William Knight was operating at a 33 per cent strike-rate heading into Monday, and Blenheim Star continued both her and her trainer’s good form when following up victory at Ripon four days ago with a win in the mile handicap.
The 11-4 chance defied a 6lb penalty to score eased down under Cieren Fallon.
"I'm very happy she defied her penalty," Knight said. "You never know backing them up, or running on a different type of track.
"Cieren gave her a sensible ride and she won with a fair bit in hand again. It's nice when they handle a track like Brighton as you're always happy to go back. Hopefully there's more improvement in her, I think she'd benefit for a step up to a mile and a quarter.
"We're delighted. Long may the form of the yard continue."
Speedy maiden
Mutamanni justified 4-9 favouritism by a length in the 5½f maiden under Jim Crowley for trainer George Boughey.
The three-year-old took an early lead and was the all-the-way winner despite a persistent challenge from 22-1 chance Big Time Rascal.
“He got lonely in front, but when the other horse came to him he went again,” Crowley told Sky Sports Racing. “He’d be better taking a lead but it’s hard to find another horse quick enough to do that.”
Seaside specialist
Shalfa proved her love of Brighton with a 12-1 victory in the 1m2f handicap.
The Lydia Richards-trained mare has won four times in her career, with three of those coming at the seaside track.
