Antler Luggage M. Valley Cup (G2)

Age: 4yo and up Type: OPEN

Grand Marshal scored his first win in 16 starts since taking out the 2015 Sydney Cup (Gr 1, 3200m). He settled back in third last place in the ten-horse field before improving (wide out) from the 700m, after being suited by a strong mid-race pace. He challenged on straightening and proved too good in the closing stages to win well in a race that developed into a solid staying test. His stablemate Who Shot Thebarman raced in fifth place, one off the rails before commencing a move (wide) from the 800m. He hit the front (still wide) at the home turn and then battled strongly for second. The $61 chance Pentathlon raced in second last place in the ten-horse field, got between runners approaching the home turn and went to fourth at the home turn. He then battled on well to take the minor placing. The favourite Gallante went to the front but was pressured mid-race (by Authoritarian) and weakened from the home turn to finish seventh.
