GOOD
The top weight (57.5 kg) Lite’n My Veins, who was having his second run this preparation, settled back in second last place in the eight-horse field, was shuffled back to last nearing the home turn and then went widest of all on straightening. He then came with a strong late finish to win impressively. The favourite Great Shot went to the front, fought back after beating off some challengers on turning for home, and was only overhauled nearing the post to take a game first up second. Miki Two Toes was fifth on the rails, got along the inner from the 200m and then battled well for a close-up third.
