Hyland Race Colours Donc. Prel (G3)
British-bred Excess Knowledge impressed with a narrow but good win. He settled nicely in third place before moving up rounding the home turn. He took a narrow lead at the 200m and then fought back particularly well to score by a head, his second win in two starts this preparation. Malice travelled well in fifth place, one off the rails. He improved quickly on turning for home, challenged strongly at the 200m and fought well for a close second. The favourite Leebaz went to the front and travelled along well, setting a reasonable tempo. He was challenged on straightening but was a little disappointing over the final stages, just holding on for third. Snippets Land was handy all the way and held on for fourth while Bull Point appeared to have every chance over the final stages before finishing (2 lengths) fifth.
