Fight Cancer Testa Rossa Stks (LR)
Keen Array began well from barrier five and settled in a nice position, one out and one back in fourth. Jockey Dwayne Dunn had the four-year-old poised to challenge as the field approached the last corner. Four wide into the straight there were four abreast but into the final 200m Keen Array edged a half length in front, then had to withstand pressure from both sides. All out, he barely held on by a nose at the finish. Well Sprung was last down the side and still last when the field passed the 300m at the top of the straight. Widest of them all, he ran on into fifth at the 100m and then quickened very well, mowing them down over the final 50m to lose narrowly. A stride past the post he was in front by a half length. Santa Ana Lane was midfield around the last corner but handy enough turning in, then ran on well to hold third.
