The Tommy Stack-trained Sirikoi build on her two previous placings to triumph by a length and a quarter, with Broderick Falls getting closer to the principals than perhaps many anticipated in third.< Alfaayza (5-1) got a dream run when a gap opened up against the rail in the Crowne Plaza Hotel Race & Stay Handicap and Fran Berry drive her th
