1st
| ASTARA
| Sam Collett
| It was a super effort from her today. She jumped and was able to dictate terms and still showed a fantastic turn of foot.
|
2nd
| ELEONORA
| Matt Cameron
| It was a top run. She will be more of a 3yo than a 2yo. The leader just kept kicking but she made good ground.
|
3rd
| FAMILY SECRET
| Sam Spratt
| It was a nice run. She's just a little green at this stage. She will come back better as an older horse.
|
4th
| QUANTUM
| Craig Grylls
| We had a nice run in the race, he probably found the ground a little bit too good for him but he tried hard and he's an honest little horse.
|
5th
| MY PAISSANN
| Michael Coleman
| It was a nice run - he got to the line alright. We were flat at the 600m but picked up late.
|
6th
| BLUE TWILIGHT
| Danielle Johnson
| He was off the bit a long way out - maybe a bit of rain would help.
|
7th
| WILIJONMCBRIDE
| Mark Du Plessis
| He's just very weak at this stage.
|
Last
| RAQISA
| Trudy Thornton
| She is a lovely filly but she will make a better 3yo - she is just a tad weak.
