Widden Stakes (LR)
The Gai Waterhouse-trained filly Overreach scored a very impressive win, her first start since her debut second in Melbourne in October, and staked strong claims for the Golden Slipper. She began quickly, travelled along easily in the lead before showing a dazzling turn of foot at the 300m, to sprint away to win by almost six lengths. Everage was smartly away and raced behind the leader to the turn. She was outclassed by that filly in the straight but showed a lot of quality in holding very well for a good second. The Gimcrack Stakes winner, Brilliant Bisc raced outside the winner to the turn and kept fighting on to take third, beaten eight lengths at the post. Sweet Kiss was trapped wide in about sixth place after starting from barrier 13. She kept running on well in the straight, finishing fourth, putting up a good effort after a torrid trip. More Joyous’ sister Most Joyful was fourth, one off the rails, most of the way to the turn and held on quite well for a sound debut fifth, beaten nine and a quarter lengths. *ANZ
