Greenslopes Priv. Victory Stks (G2)
In a boilover Temple Of Boom scored a narrow victory over his stablemate and year younger half brother Spirit Of Boom after being forced to do a lot of work from his wide barrier (8) racing three wide outside the leader Snitzerland. Temple Of Boom first pressured Snitzerland and then asserted to take the lead at the 100m and had enough in hand to hold off the late challenge on his outside by Spirit Of Boom. Spirit Of Boom went back from his wide barrier (7) and settled last. He went wide on the home turn and hit a flat spot in the straight before picking up again late to just go under. He got a long way out of his ground in the run and it was a big effort to finish as close as he did. Snitzerland was good in defeat. She was quickly away from her inside barrier to lead clearly. Taken on in front she worked hard on the front end. She went down fighting and was only beaten narrowly. Another courageous effort by a top class mare. *ANZ
