The Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained filly Prompt Response followed consistent form in four Group races since resuming with a smart win here in this Group Two race. She was settled nicely in eighth place (between runners) tracking a good pace. Tommy Berry angled into clear running rounding the home turn and she then came with a well-timed run to grab the lead at the 50m before going on to win well. Her stablemate My True Love went to the front, ran along at a good tempo and then fought back gamely in the straight for a very good second. Bonny O’Reilly, who was chasing her sixth successive win, was forced to work from her wide barrier (13) before racing outside the leader from 800m. She challenged at the 300m and then kept fighting on well for a good third after working most of the race. The favourite Raiment settled in seventh place on the rails, got into clear running at the 300m and kept battling on fairly well without threatening for (2.6 lengths) ninth.
