Top weight Pitcrew maintained his unbeaten record, now winning all his three starts, but it was not without some anxious moments. He began well and raced outside the leader (Meteoros) but he was under pressure from the 400m as the leader quickened the tempo. He was giving that horse about two lengths at the 200m and responded late to score by the barest margin in the last few strides. Meteoros went straight to the lead, setting a moderate early pace (49.18 first 800m) before pinching a break nearing the home turn. He looked certain to win when nicely clear at the 200m, only to be run down right on the post for a very close second. Amovatio had a good run, fifth between runners, and got through to third at the 200m. He then held that position, battling on quite well to take third, beaten three quarters length. Aldous was last in the seven-horse field to the turn, where he was hard ridden, he then made ground late for fourth. *ANZ
