Age: 3yo and up Type: OPEN

With a very good winning strike rate in Western Australia, Vega Magic started second favourite here and beat an excellent field fresh up after a 161 day break. Craig Williams had the four-yearold quickly out of barrier six and up handy with the pace early on. They sat third but moved up to challenge for the lead passing the 500m just outside the pacemaker. Into the straight he co-led then lost the lead until the 150m only to fight back and take over again near the post for a top win. Missrock was always handy, tracked the leading group three wide into the straight then went wide. She stormed to the front at the 250m and looked the winner but Vega Magic was too strong late. Casino Wizard had nowhere to go when they straightened but flew between runners to grab a good third from Secret Agenda, who got a late split two off the fence to rush into fourth when it was all over. Favourite Black Heart Bart was handy enough throughout, looked to challenge at the 250m but was out-finished, finishing 2.7 lengths seventh.
