 Al Shaqab Racings QAYSAR (FR) (Choisir x Coco Demure) landed the Listed Pertemps Network Spring Trophy Stakes at Haydock, UK on Saturday, opening his score in 2021.

The 6-year-old gelding, trained by Richard Hannon, was steered by Joe Fanning to stay on gamely to win the 7f Class 1 contest for three-year-olds and older comfortably by 1 lengths.

The Ralph Beckett-trained and Hector Crouch-ridden TOMEFRE (Cable Bay x Kurtanella) (GB) was the runner-up while the Brian Meehan-trained and Dane ONeill-ridden RAAEQ (IRE) (Kingman x Jamaayel) was two lengths further back in third.

QAYSAR, who was a purchase in the Arqana Breeze Up Sale as a 2-year-old, has now a record of nine wins for 29 starts. Being the son of Choisir, he is half-brother of Al Shaqab Racings Group 1 winner and renowned sire OLYMPIC GLORY
