Favourite Capri fended off stiff competition from Crystal Ocean and Stradivarius to win the 2017 St Leger Stakes at Doncaster.
Capril went off as the 3/1 frontrunner for glory and after executing a perfect race plan the Aidan O'Brien trained horse, jockeyed by Ryan Moore, came out on top in the showcase spectacle, beating Crystal Ocean into 2nd, and Stradivarius into 3rd.
It was Moore's first win in the world's oldest classic, and fifth for O'Brien, which it's the first Irish Derby winner to triumph at the St Leger Stakes since 1970.
