GOOD
Cosmic Cube scored a good first-up win. He began well from his wide barrier (14) and soon worked across to settle outside the leader (Nat King Cu). He put pressure on that runner nearing the turn, took the lead at the 200m and then fought back to win well. Just A Blur settled back in tenth place, improved (wide with cover) from the 600m, fanned deep on straightening and then came with a strong run for a late-closing second. Lunar Rise had a nice trip in third place on the rails, went to second nearing the 100m and then battled on to hold the minor placing after appearing to have every chance.
