Speedy colt Snitzkraft scored a smart first up win and has now raced eight times for four wins. Having his first run since winning at Ipswich on 23 September, he began quickly from his good barrier (2) and soon went to the front. He then travelled strongly, dashed clear at the 200m and held on to win well and in smart time. The $61 chance Irish Constabulary settled in second last place in the 13-horse field, improved along the rails on straightening, continued along the inner to be second at the 100m and kept making ground to finish (short neck) second. The favourite Havasay settled back in sixth place on the rails, went deep (under riding) at the home turn and responded over the final stages, making late ground to take third.
