Mitchelton Wines Vase (G2)

Age: 3yo Type: OPEN

Classy Sydney-trained three-year-old Savvy Nature made strong claims for next Saturday’s Victoria Derby (Gr 1, 2500m) with a decisive win. James McDonald rode him patiently, remaining in last place in the eight-horse field before improving wide from the 600m. But he was hanging and racing a little ungenerously from that point, probably due to having his first run this direction and at the Moonee Valley circuit. But he proved too strong on straightening and drew clear to win decisively by three lengths. The $201 outsider All Rigged Up raced in third place on the rails, was under pressure nearing the turn but kept fighting on surprisingly well in the straight to take second. Pinstripe Lane was second last on the rails, before improving under riding approaching the home turn. He fanned wide at the bend and kept plugging on nicely for a sound third. Tips And Beers held on for fourth with Drago tiring for fifth after missing the start and coming from last in an early move to take the lead. *ANZ
