Mullins Lawyers Grand Prix Stk (G3)
Hawkspur had a good trip from his inside barrier (1) fourth on the rails before he improved (still on the rails) to be second at the 600m. He took the lead on straightening and went on to win well by just over two lengths, running the 2200m out strongly. Rhythm To Spare was about eighth on off the rails. He moved up nicely, three wide, nearing the 600m and put in a good run passing the 300m to get to second at the 200m, then battled on well to just hold second placing. Honorius was near last to the 800m and moved up wide with cover at the 600m. He switched out on straightening and kept running on well for a good third. Usainity was seventh on the rails, improved (on the rails) to third at the home turn and seemed to have every chance before finishing fourth. Arousing Suspicion was midfield, improved wide at the 600m and fought on quite well for fifth while Dear Demi was last to the 800m and kept making round for sixth, without looking a winning chance. Ambitious Champion was well back most of the way, was under pressure from the 700m and only kept plugging on for seventh, beaten five and half lengths. *ANZ
