James Boag's Premium Stakes (LR)
Consistent four-year-old gelding Odeon followed his good recent win in a Benchmark 84 (1700m) at Caulfield to take out his first stakes race here. He had a good trip in fifth place, on the rails, before improving (deeper) at the home turn. He took the lead at the 200m and then went on to score comfortably, running the 1800m out well. Life Less Ordinary raced in back in 14th place, improved (under riding) between runners on straightening, got to eighth at the 200m and then kept running on well for second, looking suited to further. Second Bullet raced in seventh place, on the rails, stuck to the inner on turning for home and kept fighting on to take the minor placing. The favourite Lubiton was quickly away, again went to the front and then set a solid tempo. She was overtaken at the 200m before holding on for (3.9 lengths) sixth, looking tested by the 1800m journey, especially after setting a strong pace.
