Talented three-year-old Pierata is now the winner of four of his eight starts (with two placings) and he was impressive again in taking out this rich race. He was quickly away before settling nicely for Corey Brown in fifth place on the rails from his inside barrier (1) behind a smart tempo. But he was held up briefly for clear running on turning for home, got a split at the 200m, dashed to the front shortly afterwards and went on to win comfortably. Goodfella showed surprising early pace and settled in third place on the rails. He was crowded when looking for an opening on straightening and then battled on particularly well for a good second. Calculated settled in fourth place but caught deep from his difficult barrier (13). He moved up well on straightening and fought on really well for a good third. Whypeeo was very quickly away from his wide barrier (14) and showed his customary pace in soon crossing to the front. He then did well in holding on for (4 lengths) fourth after working in the early stages.
