Curragh-based Japanese trainer Takashi Kodama described the outcome as “unbelievable” after saddling 25/1 shot Elusive Time to win the €100,000 Tote Irish Cambridgeshire at the Curragh yesterday.

Leading rider at Royal Ascot last week, Johnny Murtagh again stole the show at the Curragh yesterday when giving the Roger Varian-trained 10/1 shot Ambivalent a superb front-running rider to land the Group 1 Oxigen Environmental Pretty Polly Stakes.
