Indian Skimmer, a 4-year-old filly trained in England, survived a post-race inquiry to win the $308,000 Phoenix Champion Stakes at Dublin, Ireland.

The winner was ridden by Michael Roberts, who replaced injured jockey Steve Cauthen.

Shady Heights was second, three-quarters of a length back, and Triptych third, another length behind. Persian Heights, the 2-1 favorite, finished fourth in the 1-mile race.

Shady Heights’ handlers called for an inquiry, but the stewards, after watching a replay, let the result stand.
