Schweppes Thousand Guineas (G1)
Global Glamour followed her all-the-way Flight Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) victory at Randwick on 1 October with another bold frontrunning performance here. She soon crossed to take the lead, travelled really well in front (first 1000m 61.91), was taken a bit deep on turning for home and proved too good in the closing stages to win impressively. I Am A Star settled in sixth place on the rails (from barrier two), got along the inner nearing the home turn, challenged strongly at the 200m but found he winner too strong over the closing stages to take second. Whispering Brook raced in fourth place, on the rails. She got through to be in a challenging position at the home turn and battled gamely for a good third. The favourite Foxplay settled back in eighth place, improved between runners rounding the home turn, switched deep at the 250m and battled well for (2.7 lengths) fourth, without threatening over the closing stages.
