Liverpool City Cup (G3)
The 2017 Villiers Stakes (Gr 2, 1600m) winner Crack Me Up returned to Randwick and he was quite impressive in scoring here for new trainer Bjorn Baker. He settled back in tenth place (on the rails), tracking a good pace, got along the inner at the home turn, switched deeper and into clear running at the 200m and ran on very well to grab a soft win at the post by a half-length. The favourite Care To Think settled in sixth place, but caught wide from barrier 11. He moved up (still deep) rounding the home turn, took the lead at the 200m but he could not hold off the late-closing winner for a good second after a wide trip. Burning Passion had a good trip in fifth place on the rails from his inside barrier (1), got a split to challenge at the 200m and battled on well to take the minor place. Egg Tart settled back in second last place in the 12-horse field, finally worked into clear running at the 150m and caught the eye with her lateclosing (1 length) fourth in a smart first up effort.
