1200m
TURF
HEAVY
Queensland-trained filly Miss Cover Girl began well and soon worked to the lead. She travelled nicely in front and fought back particularly well when challenged, holding on for a narrow (head) but impressive win. Peeping raced outside the leader, looked a strong danger when she challenged at the 200m and then kept fighting well for (head) second. Matilija was fourth, one out and one back, switched out at the 300m and fought on well for third, beaten just over a length. Sultry Feeling was fifth on the rails, got through to fourth at the 200m and battled on to hold that position to the post, beaten just under two lengths while Pittsburgh Flyer (seventh) and Nayeli (last) both raced well below their best in the Heavy8 conditions.
