Change works oracle for Cliff House

Representing the John Joe Walsh stable, which enjoyed a successful national hunt campaign this winter, the 10-1 chance was settled out the back, with just two behind, for much of the trip.

Jockey Rory Clearly asked his mount to begin to get competitive leaving the back, but the pair ran into traffic problems racing down the hill. Storm Away sprinted to the front on the run for home but the eventual winner found daylight with more than a furlong to go, and picked up really well to get on top late. Eshtiaal, who was sent off the heavily backed odds-on favourite, had to settle for fifth.
