Betfair Exchange Hobart Cup (G3)

WT: 55.5kg Type: OPEN

Locally-trained stayer Up Cups followed up his good recent form to make it three wins in succession in taking out this Group Three race. He settled really well in seventh place on the rails, following a moderate pace before being shuffled back at the 600m. He got a good run through nearing the home turn, went to fifth at the 200m, took a narrow lead at the 50m and fought strongly for a good win. Geegees Goldengirl went to the front a steadied the pace before being overtaken at the 1000m and then raced in fourth spot. She fanned deep coming to the home turn, briefly looked the winner when she took the lead at the 200m and could not then hold off the winner, fighting on well for a good second. Beliveau settled in last place in the 14-horse field and remained there to the 600m. He got an inside rounding the home turn, saving considerable ground, went back to the rails at the 100m and battled strongly to take third placing. Of the favoured runners, Wales was midfield to the home turn, was under pressure on straightening and failed to run on, finishing a disappointing tenth while Quick Strike went amiss at the 1000m and was retired from the race by Damian Oliver.
