Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Designs On Rome was ridden patiently second from the rear, was under pressure 700m out, straightened widest out and quickened nicely to take control 150m out for a third straight win. Helene Super Star settled fourth and one off the rails, briefly hit the front four deep at the 200m and kept on gamely to be a clear second despite a major disadvantage in the handicaps. Blazing Speed settled in the box-seat and was climbing all over the heels of the one-paced Military Attack until gaining a four deep run at the 150m and ran on nicely thereafter for a placing. Military Attack punched the breeze in second, led 350m out and came up flat over the final 150m. California Memory was ridden for luck at the rear and was getting going with two wider out. Harbour Master couldn't find another gear after travelling fore of midfield along the rails. Khaya led 1,700m out, straightened a length on top and found them too smart in the run to the wire. Endowing had no excuses after a midfield run with cover outside Harbour Master.
