Racing.Com Maribyrnong Plate (G3)
Power Trip went to the Grandstand side and led that group, travelling comfortably. He increased his lead on them, and appeared to be also holding a lead over the rails side group, on passing the 400m. He then fought gamely, holding on to score in a photo in a bold debut performance. Flying Artie was restrained behind the rails side group before sprinting quickly to lead them nearing the 300m. He then kept fighting back well, only being beaten narrowly at the post for a very good second, also impressing on debut. Gloriette was last of the four runners on the rails side, she got through to third at the 100m and then fought on nicely to hold that position at the post. $1,600,000 yearling War Hero held a narrow lead on the rails side to the 400m, was headed at the 300m and then held on for (3.4 lengths) fourth in a sound effort on debut in the Soft7 conditions.
