Kim Muir: Inothewayurthinkin proves different class

Inothewayurthinkin

justified the big and sustained market move in the closing race on day three by cantering home under top-weight in the Kim Muir Fulke Walawyn Challenge Cup under Derek O'Connor for trainer Gavin Cromwell in the colours of JP McManus. 

Last and well behind the pace with a circuit to go, leading amateur rider O'Connor allowed his mount to take closer order in his own time and travelled notably strongly turning into the straight, with just three lengths separating him and leading pair

Git Maker

and

Whacker Clan

. 

Last year's winner Angel's Dawn might have proven the sternest challenger, but that rival looked beat when slithering to the turf on landing after the second-last and, when asked, Inothewayurthikin opened up in impressive fashion despite testing conditions to score by eight lengths, with Git Maker 22 lengths clear of Whacker Clan.

Where It All Began

finished fourth. 

Cromwell told Racing TV's Tom Stanley: "I thought passing the stands it was going to take an awful lot of luck, he was so far back, he was jumping very big and slow and wasn't helping Derek but he's a cool person, Derek. 

"Every day you have a winner is a good day."
