GOOD
Lucky Hussler was ridden patiently by Brad Rawiller from barrier four and settled well back in eighth place, between runners. He took a split on turning for home before getting through along the inner from the 300m to challenge strongly. He then fought very gamely to score a narrow but very good win. The favourite Illustrious Lad went forward from his wide barrier (11) and gradually worked across to race outside the leader (Faatinah). He got to the front on passing the 300m and then battled very gamely for a close second, putting up a good run after his early efforts. Super Cash settled near last in the 11-horse field and remain there until well into the straight. She then put in a solid run, getting up in time to take the minor placing.
