Inglis Christmas Cup (LR)
Permit travelled along comfortably in third place on the rails, following a slow pace set in the small five-horse field. He moved up (three deep) approaching the home turn, took the lead at the 200m and went on to win quite well, by almost a length at the post. Martinvast was last early but made an early move, due to a very slow early tempo. He took the lead at the 1600m point and established a clear advantage to the 600m. He looked beaten at the turn, but came again in the straight to finish second, beaten three quarters of a length. Hoylonny remained near the tail of the small field to the home turn, switched wide on straightening and ran on fairly well, being disadvantaged by the sprint home (leaders running last 600m 34.67) to finish third. Maluckyday was same most of the way before finishing fourth while the favourite Secessio ($2.80) was a distant second from the mid-stages to the 600m, but disappointed in the straight, dropping out to finished last, beaten five and a half lengths. *ANZ
