Chipping Norton trainer Charlie Longsdon praised jockey Charlie Deutsch after Azure Fly’s win at Newbury yesterday.
The teenager made all the running on the 5-1 shot to beat Desert Joe by nine lengths in the novices’ limited handicap chase over an extended two miles and six furlongs.
Longsdon said: “Charlie nicked five lengths turning in. It was a good front-running ride.”
