Bundaberg Distilling Btc Cup (G1)
Famous Seamus settled in a good position, fifth one off the rails, following a good early pace. He went wide on straightening, put in a good run passing the 200m to challenge strongly at the 100m and he then finished well to score by half a length. Spirit Of Boom was last in the seven-horse field to turn. He switched wide at the 300m and came with a late run for second. The favourite Buffering was a little slow to move, Damian Browne then urged him to improve and he worked a bit before settling outside the leader Tiger Tees. He went to the front at the 200m but then tired after his early efforts to finish third, beaten a length and a quarter. Temple Of Boom was third on the rails, moved up (three wide) to challenge turning for home then battled on for (1.4 lengths) fourth. Peron was back in sixth place to the 600m, stuck to the rails and gradually made ground for (2.9 lengths) fifth, looking suited to further. Hot Snitzel proved a difficult ride. He was a handy third, but he raced very keenly and was hanging out in stages, before finishing (4.4 lengths) sixth while Tiger Tees led the field to the 200m and then dropped out to finish (6.2 lengths) last in the seven-horse field. *ANZ
