Spright was too strong in the straight, storming down the outer to have the race under control at the 50m for win five and her fourth stakes win. She was fourth last at the 800m, third last at the 400m, went very wide into the last corner but was giving the leaders at least six lengths at the 300m. When balanced she accelerated hard and flew down the outer, gathered in the leaders at the 100m then continued her momentum to win by a half length. A super run from Tumbler who was locked away at the 300m and didn't see daylight until the 100m then burst through to grab second short of the post. Havasay finished almost as strongly as the winner out in the middle of the track after being among the last few turning for home. Sony Legend found a narrow gap at the 150m, surging into fourth out of the pack.
