Mrs. Peter Harris' Dora Carrington (by Sri Pekan), sent off at 12-1 odds, displayed a closing kick to upset Enthused (Seeking the Gold) and seven other fillies in Tuesday's Cherry Hinton Stakes (Eng-II) at Newmarket, England. Trained by the owner's husband, Peter Harris, the 2-year-old filly was ridden by Richard Quinn for her second win in as many starts. Enthused, seeking to give trainer Sir Michael Stoute his fourth Cherry Hinton win, held on for second after relinquishing the lead to the winner. Strange Destiny (Mujadil) and Freefourracing (French Deputy), the co-7-2 favorites, finished sixth and eighth, respectively.
