Simpson Constr. Typhoon Tracy (G3)
Progressive filly Almighty Girl confirmed her talent stepping up from winning a Three-Year-Old Fillies’ Maiden Handicap (1000m) on debut at Mornington on 18 January to taking out this Group Three race two starts later. She was smartly away from her wide barrier (11), settled in fourth place, one out and one back, before moving up (three deep) nearing the home turn. She set out after the leader (Secret Agenda) on straightening, grabbed the lead nearing the post and appeared to win with quite a bit in hand. She looks a very smart filly with a bright future. Favourite Secret Agenda drove through from her inside barrier (1) to lead. She then settled quite well, grabbed a clear break approaching the home turn but could not hold off the winner in the closing stages, conceding her 2.5kg, and held on for a very sound, first-up second. Super Cash settled well in fifth place on the rails from her good barrier (3), switched out rounding the home turn and kept running on well for a good third. Painted Firetail was eased from her wide barrier (10), settled near last before improving between runners nearing the home turn. She got to sixth at the 100m and finished nicely, late, for a fourth, beaten just under three lengths, in a promising effort. Lake Geneva began quickly and settled in a good spot, third on the rails. She was under pressure on turning for home and then kept battling on to hold fifth placing after appearing to have every chance.
