Emirates Stakes (G1)

Age: 3yo and up WT: 52.5kg Type: OPEN

Turn Me Loose maintained his unbeaten Australian preparation, now winning three of his four starts, with another strong front-running performance. He was smartly away, soon crossed to the front and then ran along at a good tempo (first 1000m 59.87). He was challenged a number of times in the straight but fought back courageously for a narrow but very impressive win. Politeness was ridden patiently and settled well back in third last place on the rails in the 15-horse field. She improved between runners on straightening, got to eighth at the 200m, challenged strongly at the 100m and fought well for a very good second, just finding the winner (whom conceded her 3.5kg) a bit too good. Rock Sturdy was sixth, between runners, got into clear running at the 300m and kept responding to riding, running on well for a close-up third. Magic Artist was 11th (between runners), switched towards the inner (under riding) at the 200m and kept fighting well for a good (1.3 lengths) fourth. He Or She was last coming to the home turn and caught the eye with his late-closing (2.6 lengths) fifth. Lucky Hussler had a nice trip from his good barrier (3) in fifth place on the rails. He looked a real threat when he gained an inside run to challenge at the 200m but then battled a bit under his top weight (58kg) for a very sound sixth. Of the others: equal favourites Disposition, was a handy fourth to the home turn but just battled on for (3.9 lengths) eighth, while Bow Creek was ninth (wide with cover) and also disappointed, tiring for (7.1 lengths) 12th.
