The $50,000 Quirindi Cup was won by the Peter Sinclair-trained Ah Well (Rachael Murray).
Ah Well, a five-year-old mare, had finished fourth in the Glen Innes Cup in January and third in the Walcha Cup earlier this month.
In the Quirindi Cup, the feature race on an eight-race TAB meeting, Ah Well beat the Sue Grills-trained Mandalong Tapit (Grant Buckley) by more than half a length, with the Cody Morgan-trained Acrophobic (Jackson Searle) a short distance back in third place.
Ah Well paid $7.50 for the win (TAB fixed odds).
