Machadadorp won the British EBF Fillies’ Handicap Stakes at York over 7f on good to soft ground at SP 9/1. She raced close to the pace from early on, was short of room 2f out, then produced a strong run once in the clear, pressing the leader inside the final furlong before hitting the front approaching the last 110 yards and pulling clear. Woohoo tracked the pace, went on over a furlong out but drifted left and was overtaken close home, fading in the final stages yet holding on for second by a neck. Oolong Poobong finished third.
