Lexus Stakes (G3)

WT: 54kg Type: OPEN

Kerrin McEvoy took the British-trained stayer Ruscello immediately to the lead. He then travelled along at a moderate pace before picking up the tempo nearing the 600 metre point. He then fought back strongly when challenged to win narrowly but well in the sprint home and also grab a spot in next Tuesday’s Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m). Let’s Make Adeal was handily placed in fourth place, one off the rails most of the way to the 600 metre marker. She challenged (three wide) nearing the home turn and fought on well in the straight for a gusty second. Araldo was tenth to the 1000 metre marker, switched between runners at the 600 metre mark, got a split at the 400 metre point but hung from then on, proving difficult to ride-out in the straight, to finish third. Ethiopia was second last in the 14-horse field to the 600 metre marker. He continued to make ground (wide out) in the straight for a good fourth. *ANZ
