Crystal Mile (G2)

Type: OPEN

New Zealander Turn Me Loose went straight to the front and Opie Bosson let him run along freely, setting a strong tempo (first 1000m 58.98). He grabbed a good break nearing the home turn and then fought back strongly, putting up an impressive front-running performance to win well. Godolphin import Bow Creek was back in fifth place on the rails, was shuffled back a bit coming to the home turn, got clear on straightening and impressed with his late-closing second at his Australian debut. Favourite Lucky Hussler was seventh one off the rails, went deep to make his run at the 600m, was under pressure at the home turn, got to second (chasing the leader) on straightening and then battled on for a sound third. Malice was back in ninth place, one off the rails, switched deep (under riding) at the home turn and steadily made ground for a good (4 lengths) fourth.
