Speedy mare Quilista staged a smart effort in winning here, her ninth win from 30 starts and her fourth at stakes level. She went straight to the front from her good barrier (2), travelled well at quite a good tempo, dashed clear nearing the 200m and was not threatened from that point to win easily. Test The World raced in third place until into the home straight and then battled on well for second without troubling the winner. River Racer was back in eighth place and made ground to take third just in advance of Miss Que, who raced outside the leader and eventual winner to the home turn and then held on for (3.9 lengths) fourth.
