Mayson captures cup success

A turn-up in the Darley July Cup had looked a distinct possibility and it was supplied by 20-1 shot Mayson as he led for virtually all the six furlongs at a saturated Newmarket this afternoon.

It was a first British Group One winner for both trainer Richard Fahey and dual champion jockey Paul Hanagan, who was prostrate on the very same turf two weeks ago after a nasty fall.
