CONTROVERSY in the 2021 Matron Stakes - NO SPEAK ALEXANDER keeps the race after a lengthy enquiry

No Speak Alexander bounced back to form to cause a 25-1 upset in the 2021 Coolmore America “Justify” Matron Stakes at Leopardstown. The Jessica Harrington-trained filly crossed the line in front in a tight and a dramatic finish to the Group One over a mile. But she then had to survive a stewards’ inquiry after things got very tight deep inside the final furlong. Third in the Irish 1,000 Guineas in May, No Speak Alexander had benefited from a pipe-opener in the Group One Prix Rothschild at Deauville last month. She took her revenge on the winner that day, Mother Earth, who had no luck in running on this occasion. #HorseRacing #Leopardstown #LICW21 #IrishChampionsWeekend #Horses This is the official YouTube channel of Racing TV.
