Adrian Murray's runner stayed on well over the final furlong to threaten the places.
A Westmeath trained 66-1 shot outran her odds in nearly spectacular fashion at Royal Ascot today.
Adrian Murray's Magical Sunset, piloted by David Egan, was considered a rank outsider for the Group Two Duke of Cambridge Stakes this afternoon.
However the 4 year old Kodiac filly was kept off the pace before staying on over the last two furlongs to run into third, before being pipped on the line by William Haggas' Doom.
John Gosden and Oisin Murphy combined with the winner, Running Lion.
