Surge lands York Stakes Luca Cumani's Summit Surge came with a late thrust to deny Bushman in the Sky Bet York Stakes. Second in Italy on his last start behind Pressing, the former Ger Lyons-trained six-year-old sneaked up the inside to claim Group Two glory. Bushman tracked the long-time leader Monitor Closely into the straight and when last year's St Leger third began to weaken, Neil Callan kicked on. He looked to be going best of all but Kieren Fallon unleashed Summit Surge (8-1) inside the final furlong to win going away by a length and a quarter. "I've been dying to run him over further and fast ground is what he needs," said Cumani. "He showed a nice turn of foot. We took him out to Dubai and he ran well on turf but didn't like the Tapeta. "There's the Rose Of Lancaster next for him I think but the ground would have to be fast, which it very rarely is at Haydock." Callan said of the runner-up: "He definitely got the trip, he was just beaten by a better horse. "I beat him last time on Pressing and he is a genuine Group One horse so there is no disgrace being beaten by him."
