The in-form Chris Waller-trained gelding Wu Gok is now the winner of four of his last five starts. He was given a good trip by James McDonald racing in fourth place before moving up and putting pressure on the leaders approaching the 600m. He got to the front on turning for home and then went on to win well in a solid staying performance. Hush Writer worked in the early stages from a wide barrier before racing outside the leader (Stampede). He was pressured nearing the home turn and then fought on well to hold second in a photo after working most of the way. Vaucluse Bay raced in sixth place, was under riding coming to the home turn but kept responding in the straight, battling on well to take third.
