Godolphin-raced filly Manicure followed her promising win at her second race start in a 2YO Fillies’ Maiden (1100m) at Canterbury on 21 June with a good win, stepping up in class here. She was second early on, but after being forced wide, settled in fourth place. She improved nearing the home turn, set out after the leader at the 200m and kept running on well to grab a good win. Joe Pride-trained filly Brook Magic showed good pace to lead, got a break on turning for home, looking the winner, only to be overhauled nearing the post to finish second after running a bold race. The favourite Awesome Pluck settled in sixth place, but trapped deep. He moved up (still wide) at the 600m, got to fourth at the 200m and continued to run on nicely to take a good third after a difficult trip while Team Hawkes-trained Wild Heart made good ground from back in sixth place at the home turn for a close-up fourth.
