Kirov jumped away well but he had to work from his outside barrier (8) before crossing to race outside the leader (Happy Hotspur) at the 1000m point. He then travelled nicely as the pace slowed and moved up well on straightening. He took the lead passing the 200m and went away to win well by just under two lengths. He is a nice type of colt who looks to have a good future. Harry Hotspur was smartly away and went straight to the lead. He steadied the tempo mid-race and battled on well when challenged in the straight, holding on quite well for second. The favourite Sugar Rush was wide early and eased to settle sixth one of the rails. She improved three wide nearing the home turn, put in a run at the 300m, getting to third at the 200m and held that position to the post. Double Eagle was third on the rails to the home turn and battled on for fourth after having every opportunity. *ANZ
