Coca-Cola Newcastle Newmarket (G3)

WT: 54.0kg Type: OPEN

Happy Clapper was impressive in winning here. Having his second run this preparation he was smartly away and then settled nicely back in third place (one off the rails, without cover) before moving up well nearing the home turn. Blake Shinn steered him deeper on straightening (looking for the better going), hit the front at the 200m and then drew away under his top weight (59kg) to win easily. Got Unders enjoyed a good trip behind the leader (Chetwood), challenged on turning for home and then battled on to hold second, having no chance with the winner. Kellyville Flyer raced back in fifth place (tracking the eventual winner), got to third at the 100m and then kept fighting on to hold that position to the post. Too Good To Refuse raced last in the 10-horse field until nearing the home turn and made late ground for (5.7 lengths) fourth, without threatening. The second favourite Chetwood soon crossed from his outside barrier (10) to lead, appeared to be travelled well coming to the home turn but was soon beaten and weakened to finish (13 lengths) ninth in a disappointing performance.
