SIR Busker had the punters singing with a late surge to win the Silver Hunt Cup off top-weight.
Oisin Murphy timed his run to the minute to fly home on the William Knight-trained 12-1 shot.
Salayel looked home and hosed after leading up the rail for much of the race but Murphy – winning his first of the week – got it spot on.
The near side group filled most of the places with Alternative Fact and Almufti third and fourth.
None of the far side group finished in the first seven.
