Caburn defied pre-race signs of inexperience to maintain his unbeaten record and secure a significant victory.

Having previously won on debut at Salisbury, this son of Twilight Son delivered trainer Jack Jones and jockey Dylan Hogan their first success at the track.

In a thrilling finish, Caburn surged late between Vingegaard and Time For Sandals, edging ahead in the final strides to win by a neck and a short-head. Hogan expressed his unwavering belief in Caburn, having convinced the owners not to sell him when he went to the breeze. Their decision paid off handsomely, and Caburn’s talent shone through in this exciting race.

"I was outpaced early and had to niggle away at him but I knew he'd keep going. There was a little bit of traffic in front of me but he was very gutsy when I needed him towards the end. I'm very, very happy."

Jones added: "That was unreal. I'm delighted. For us to have runners at meetings like these on Saturdays is rare at this stage. I've been very, very happy with how things have been going. Last year we really got rolling and I was advised to buy this guy as a yearling but I never dreamed we'd even be here, let alone winning it. 

"He's in the Gimcrack at York and off the back of that on only his second start, six furlongs is his gig so the Gimcrack would be the obvious next step."
