The Nextra Moe Cup

WT: 54kg Type: OPEN

Authoritarian is now the winner of three of his last five starts. He began well from barrier nine and soon went to the front. He then travelled particularly well, increased his lead at the 1000m and set up a big advantage by the time he reached the home turn. He then dug deep and held on to win well. Escado battled well after chasing the leader to take a good second with his top weight (58kg), conceding 4kg to the winner. Transfer Allowance was last in the 12-horse field, went widest of all from the 600m and kept running on resolutely to take a good third. The favourite Raw Impulse settled midfield, but trapped wide after starting from barrier 11 in the 12-horse field. He made a move (deep) from the 600m, got to a distant third at the home turn but battled from that point to finish (4 lengths) seventh, after a difficult trip.
