White red-hot on her return

CHINESE White scored her second Listed race success when landing the Hurry Harriet Stakes, named after the great Paddy Mullins 1973 Newmarket Champion Stakes winner, at Gowran Park last night.

Backed from 9-4 to 15-8 favourite, the Dermot Weld-trained daughter of Dalakhani scored by one and a half lengths from Roman Empress and was well on top at the finish after Pat Smullen stoked her up to get the better of the runner-up inside the final furlong.

Lady Chryss O’Reilly’s grey four-year-old won the Victor McCalmont Memorial Stakes at the same track early last season and had been off the track since May prior to last night’s race.
