Wordsmith Newmarket Qlty (LR)

WT: 54.0kg Type: OPEN

The well supported and highly consistent I’m Wesley is now unbeaten in all five runs this preparation after staging a strong effort in taking out his first stakes victory here, which was also his tenth win (with eight placings) in 26 starts. He began well, was fourth early on before moving up three wide from the 600m. He challenged at the 200m and then finished too well to score impressively. Second favourite Lord Da Vinci raced in sixth place, tracking the eventual winner. He then moved up (wide out) from the 600m, got to fourth at the 200m and kept running on well under his top weight (58.5kg) to take a very good second in a smart second-up performance. Gee Gee Red Prince was quickly away and soon crossed to the front. He then set a good tempo, got a break at the home turn and held on well for third after running a bold race.
