Stuart Coltherd celebrated his first success of the season in spectacular fashion at Kelso when Crokes Cross equalled the record for the longest-priced winner in modern history at 300-1.

It was only in December when the Nigel Hawke-trained Blowers broke the previous record, winning at the same price at Exeter.

Previously Equinoctial held the moniker, having won at 250-1 in 1990 – also at Kelso.

Making her British debut in the two-mile novice hurdle after two bumper runs in Ireland, she stayed on strongly under Jamie Hamilton to beat better-fancied stablemate Changemyluck (5-2) by a length and a quarter.
