Anzac Day Stakes (LR)
Throssell, a debut winner at Bendigo over 1000 metres, showed he could be a promising middle distance three-year-old next season after the juvenile sat three wide without cover over 1400 metres and being urged along around the turn by jockey Nick Hall before proving too strong for his rivals and making it two wins in a row. Pyx Chamber, also a last start winner, had the perfect run behind the leader and race favourite Biased Witness and got clear at the right time but could not match the impressive winner. Smart As You Think was sixth on the fence, trailing Pyx Chamber and was held up slightly between the 400m and 300m mark before getting clear and running home well, indicating the two-year-old filly will appreciate more distance. Biased Witness had to do a little bit of work early to find the front but weakened late to finish fourth in what was an on-pace dominated race.
