Zeditave Stakes (G3)
Benz scored his maiden stakes win and sixth win from ten starts while running a smart time. He got away well from barrier 4 and sat behind the pace in third, against the fence. The first two cleared out leaving Benz still third but well in the clear past the 500m. Into the straight, rider Blake Shinn asked for more but the response was not immediate, however, the leaders came back and Benz took over inside the 100m and scored by three quarters of a length at the line. Hard Promise vied for the lead from the 800m (rails), took over at the 200m, looked likely at the 100m but was not able to hold off the winner. Derryn was fourth last at the 500m (rails), hugged the fence into the straight but did not really get going until the 100m for a good third. Into Orbit had much to do turning in, was bumped at the 200m then rattled home late for a solid (1.7 lengths) fourth.
