Surround Stakes (G2)
Top class filly First Seal, having her second run this preparation, was most impressive in taking this out in brilliant fashion. She was ridden quietly by Black Shinn and settled back in eighth place (wide with cover). She commenced to improve (wide out) from the 600m, swept to the front at the 200m and then raced away to win by almost three lengths in a stunning display. Supara was third on the rails, put in a run on straightening and fought on well for a sound second. Slightly Sweet was just past midfield on the rails, stuck to the inside and in the straight and made ground for third. The 1000 Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m) winner Amicus was fifth between runners, was under riding nearing the turn and kept battling on for (4.3 lengths) fourth while her stablemate Winx caught the eye making good late from the tail of the field for (4.8 lengths) fifth.
