No Half Measures caused a shock at Newmarket as the 66-1 outsider won the July Cup under jockey Neil Callan.<\/b><\/p>\n
Trained by former jockey Richard Hughes, No Half Measures edged past Big Mojo on the line to win the 145th edition of the Group One sprint.<\/p>\n
Run To Freedom finished third, a further length and three-quarters back, with Believing in fourth and favourite Notable Speech fifth.<\/p>\n
“Over the last couple of years I felt I was a bit buried,” Callan told ITV Racing.<\/p>\n
“Last year was a bit of a struggle and this year’s been a bit of a struggle, but you just wait for that one horse.<\/p>\n
“I was open-minded as an outsider but he [Hughes] always believed she could run the race because she has good stats and performances over six. <\/p>\n
“It’s a surreal moment.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"No Half Measures caused a shock at Newmarket as the 66-1 outsider won the July Cup under jockey…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":259586,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4107],"tags":[1071,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-259585","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-racing","8":"tag-racing","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114841623258895542","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259585","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=259585"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259585\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/259586"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=259585"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=259585"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=259585"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
