Away with them, showed some authority to lead, controlled terms to suit, found passing 300m and went on to defy rivals and score.

Began in line, settled in midfield racing 3 wide with cover, 3-4Ls back on bend, improved from 400m and kept working into it nicely, maintained effort and just outlasted inside 100m.

No early speed. Raced behind midfield on rails, 5Ls off top end, angled wider turning, in traffic early in straight but closed nicely when clear for 3rd.

Faded back from a tricky gate, settled 3 wide behind midfield 5ls back, improved approaching final bend, made good ground despite hanging, drifted out badly late.

Began nicely, assumed prominent spot on leaders back, had ideal run throughout, run emerged turning and looked a place chance, peaked and boxed on steadily behind placegetters.

Ended up at rear from outside alley, 6-7Ls away 3 wide with cover on circle, still well back turning, made good ground in straight to be nearest on line.

Caught 3 wide without cover and pressed on to be racing up outside leaders, did work in mid section, kept on to 200m before hard run took toll and weakened out.

Out with rest, pushed up to race on rails 3Ls or so from lead, no excuses in run, close enough turning but just had one speed in straight and held ground.

Faded back from a tricky alley, raced at rear on rails, made ground turning, kept to inside and kept progressing but blocked for a run at business end and wasn't properly tested.

Began well, assumed dream spot 1 out back, had no excuses in mid section, looked a place chance but didn't let down when asked final 200m and dropped out easily. (See Racing Incidents.)

Taken back as usual, raced in rear division 6Ls away in running line, checked at 600m, still well back to bend, only passed beaten runners last 300m.

Away slowly, improved to race 2 wide in midfield 4Ls back, fair run in mid section, ridden along turning but failed to find another gear and just whacked away in straight.

Showed speed to work across and race outside leader, even run despite some attention from horse outside, soon under pressure turning and folded tamely.
