Doncaster Prelude (G3)
Weary put in a really good performance here racing a lot closer to the pace and proving too strong in the run to the line. Hugh Bowman settled Weary down in third position about three lengths from the leader Leebaz. He trailed Strawberry Boy who tired before the home turn and set sail for Leebaz who had put four to five lengths on the field at the 800m. He drew level with the long-time leader at the 100m and went clear at the 50m to score by three quarters of a length. Leebaz was sound in defeat. He ran along in front and stayed hard against the fence. He only tired late on and was not beaten far, a good effort. I’m Imposing came from eight beaten runners to close well late on for third. A good first up run. *ANZ
