Blue Diamond Prelude (C&G) (G3)

Age: 2yo Sex: CG Type: OPEN

Property has not finished further back than second in three starts, now winning twice and he put up another good effort in winning here. He began well from his good barrier (3) and settled in sixth place (wide with cover). He made his move (deep) at the home turn, challenged at the 100m, got to the front at the 50m and then went on to win well. The favourite Pariah began well but was eased when wide after starting from barrier nine and settled in eighth place, between runners. He eased out at the 300m, took a moment to wind up and then came with a strong finish, putting up a very good effort in finishing second. Wait For No One is aptly named again showing his pace to lead and held a clear break shortly after straightening. He was only headed at the 50m and did well in holding on for a close up third after running a bold race. Azazel was smartly away from his wide barrier (12) and after racing deep early on, settled in third place (three wide without cover), was under pressure at the 200m and then ran on again to take (3.2 lengths) fourth, putting up a good run after a difficult trip. Overshare raced behind the leader to the home turn and held on for (3.4 lengths) fifth.
