Away Game looked a really smart filly in scoring here. Having her second start after finishing fourth in the Merson Cooper Stakes (Listed, 1000m) at Sandown-Hillside on 16 November, she went smartly early on before settling nicely outside the leader (Hamilton Hill). She got the better of that runner on turning for home and then drew away over the latter stages to win easily. Smart 'N' Sexy was slow to move. Settled in second last place in the eight-runner field, she improved between runners rounding the home turn and then battled on well along the rails over the latter stages for a promising second on debut. Miss Lot Won settled in third place on the rails, eased into clear running at the home turn and kept fighting on quite well for third with Thrasher making good late ground from last to finish fourth in a nice run on debut.
