ORTENSIA SNATCHES NUNTHORPE GLORY.

Quote:
Australian mare Ortensia delivered a remarkable late run to lift the Coolmore Nunthorpe Stakes at York.

Paul Messara's seven-year-old was almost last and at least 10 lengths behind the leader at the halfway stage of the five-furlong Group One.

However, William Buick retained the coolest of heads as he pushed her up the far side of the track and the well-backed 7-2 joint-favourite collared Spirit Quartz in the shadow of the post to collect by a neck.
