G.A. Towton Cup (LR)

Age: 3yo and up WT: 54.5kg Type: OPEN

The favourite Knightlike ($5) settled back in tenth place in the 14-horse field. He gradually improved, wide with cover, from the 1000m but was held up between runners rounding the home turn. He got a split nearing the 300m, challenged at the 150m and ran on resolutely to win well, going away by half a length at the post. Cyber Crime raced in seventh place between runners, got into the clear rounding the home turn and went to fourth on straightening. He took a narrow lead at the 100m and battled on gamely for a good second, beaten half a length. Malaika ($21) was sixth on the rails to the turn, got along the rails half way down the straight and kept fighting on well for a good third. *ANZ
