Kayf Grace (14/1) spoiled a gamble on Augusta Kate in the Goffs Nickel Coin Mares' Standard Open NH Flat Race at Aintree.
Willie Mullins' mare was sent off the 15/8 favourite and arrived in the straight holding every chance.
The two slugged it out in a slow motion finish but Kayf Grace and Nico de Boinville were never headed and would not be denied.
The six-year-old crossed the line half a length clear of the Ruby Walsh ridden Augusta Kate who was, in turn, five lengths clear of Shattered Love
