Sheraco Stakes (G3)
Catkins settled with three behind her once they settled and remained in that position around the turn and into the straight. James McDonald pulled her wide into the middle of the track, balanced her up and then drove her to catch both Echo Gal and Bounding. At the 200m, Catkins ranged alongside Echo Gal and with a hundred to run McDonald put the whip away and she cruised to the line. Echo Gal had the lead soon after the start and maintained a nice lead deep into the straight and, except for Catkins, looked the winner but could not withstand the latter’s burst but held second quite comfortably. Bounding had the run of the race and no excuses. Into the straight she had a perfect run and a great sight of the leader but could not pull anything out in the run to the line.
