Freshened after a disappointing last in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic (RL, 1200m) in January, Cellargirl made amends with a sound win here, her second in four starts. Away from barrier two, she settled fourth next to the fence then crept closer to camp behind the pacemaker from the 600m to the last corner. When the leader straightened a nice gap opened one off the fence and she drew alongside at the 200m then shot clear to win convincingly by a length and three quarters at the post. Skate To Paris was a handy third into the straight, took a while to balance then ran home well, doing her best work over the final 100m yet no match, for a good second. She's Our Star led from the barriers to the 200m and kept going strongly to hold third from Pretty Fast, who turned in four wide and ran on best of the rest for fourth.
