Manfred Stakes (LR)
The Peter Moody-trained Royal Haunt made it three for three with an impressive win here. The son of Kentucky Derby winner Hard Spun began well from his outside barrier (7) and soon led. He then slowed the pace before kicking clear on straightening for an easy win. Force Command drove through to race in third spot on the rails until into the straight. He again got an inside run passing the 100m to take second placing from his stablemate, third-placed Hosting, who had raced outside the leader most of the way until into the straight. The favourite Albrecht was steadied early and was fifth in the early stages. He improved three wide when the pace slowed at the 800m and rounded the home turn, still wide, but now under pressure. He disappointed in the straight, tiring for sixth, beaten just over six lengths. *ANZ
