Zunbaqa returned from a recent double at Morphettville to take her record to four wins from five starts with a smart performance here. She began well from her inside barrier (1) and soon drove through to take the lead. She then settled well and steadied the tempo (first 400m 50.92) before picking up the pace from the 600m. She got a good break at the 200m and then went on to win well. Benny Goes Berzerk raced in sixth place on the rails and stuck to the inner on turning for home (under riding) and kept battling on well for a sound second being unsuited by the lack of early pace. The favourite Decorated Soldier raced in eighth place, one off the rails, before improving (wide) rounding the home turn. He put in a solid run in the centre of the track from the 200m and fought well for a good third also being unsuited by the sprint-home conditions of the race.
