The seven-year-old Found On had six lengths to spare at the finish of the extended two-mile-three-furlong event and took her winning steak to five, having landed three successive handicaps earlier in the year and added to that at Worcester on her seasonal bow last month.

Local trainer Martin Keighley is hopeful she can step up in class over the coming months.

He said: “She always makes the running and Sean came and said they all want to make the running.

“He is such a good rider that he gave her plenty of room over the first couple and she winged the second, and then she dominated the race. She was fit because she had a prep race and he just made good use of her, and her jumping is class. There were some good horses in there.

“We hope there is a nice Listed race for her. We will try to go down the mares’ route and get some black type.”
