Sportingbet Sprint (G3)
Girl Guide was trapped three wide facing the breeze from her wide barrier (10). She challenged for the lead on cornering for home and fought the whole way down the straight to grab a narrow victory right on the line. A good effort considering the extra ground she covered in the run. A Time For Julia raced on the outside of the leader Spirits Dance. She over raced a little in the middle stages before pressing for the lead on turning for home. She was left in front at the top of the straight and fought the whole way too the line only being grabbed late on, a sound effort in defeat. Shamal Wind put in a huge run coming from eighth between runners before rocketing home between horses to just miss on the line. A good effort. Politeness ran well. She followed the winner three wide in sixth position. She was brought to the middle of the track in the straight and closed steadily the whole way to the line.
