Hareeba Stakes (LR)
Thermal Current jumped as well as any from his inside draw but he was outsped by Mirage, Jabali and Mirt The Flirt in the first few hundred metres and settled fourth on the fence. Saving ground on the inner saw him in a perfect position when they straightened with the bonus of a split, one off the rail, which he grabbed and ranged up to the leader passing the 200m. Jockey Harry Coffey drew the stick and set for the line with a small break and it was enough to hold on tenaciously at the post. Precious Gem was locked away on the fence before the short straight but got on to Thermal Current’s heels as the winning split presented itself and once past the leader switched to the rails and made a worthwhile run at the winner, going under in a fighting finish. Dan Zephyr also sat on the rails behind Precious Gem and tracked her past the lead and then flew the last bit to grab third late.
