ARETHA had a smart inside position on the fence nestled behind the pacesetter in the early stages of this route race, kept a close eye on the leader rating kindly at the half, was nudged on to pick up the bit midway around the final turn, hugged the corner turning for home in the thick of things inside, darted up the rail at the furlong pole taking control and opened up with ease winning with an impressive debut. COOL TIMES had a good spot sitting just outside keeping track on the frontrunner, began to turn up the pressure edging up to the leader outside at the quarter pole, loomed menacingly four wide turning for home, battled outside in the three path at the furlong pole for the front end but was no match for the winner who had another gear in the late going and settled for a clear second best at the wire instead. LAZY Y COLLECTION was hustled in the beginning to be loose up top on the first turn, got a breather still unchallenged along the backside at the half, continued dictating terms on the last turn but by a narrowing margin inside at the quarter pole, drifted out to the three-path clinging on to the front end still in upper stretch, was engulfed by the top two finishers on either side by the furlong pole giving way on the lead but still dug in late to hold for the show money under a solid frontrunning effort. WINNING AGENDA was up close near the lead pack situated on the fence moving well in hand, galloped along on the inside in the third tier travelling quite smoothly down the backside, started to commence a rally shifting out three wide at the quarter pole and closed in willingly for the third position but could not get there late and settled on being a fringe player in the end. JUST IN TOUCH had a stalking role ahead of just one runner on the first turn as well as down the backstretch, shifted out four wide coming up to a crowd of horses at the quarter pole, found a big seam still in the four path straightening out for home and showed some strong late energy finishing very sharply in deep stretch. TRACY ARM was forwardly placed going five wide into the first of two turns, settled into stride going three deep in the middle of the pack along the backstretch, was scrubbed on for more at the five sixteenths pole trying to keep up to rivals while four wide on the last bend, swung out widest in the eight path at the head of the lane and showed some interest outside horses in the final eighth of a mile. ASHLEE B settled on the fence having only a couple of runners beaten, offered little change along the backside, was hard ridden at the five sixteenths pole inside three others making little impression and finished up one paced just off the rail down the lane. BACKSTREET EMMA was allowed to drift out going six wide bumping and forcing the outside rival widest around the first turn, made an early move advancing on the outside of horses going three deep down the backstretch, was scrubbed for more midway around the far turn chasing the lead trio but had little left in the five path for the stretch run and tired in the final furlong. YORKTON'S TAFFY was unhurried inside trailing the field in the early going, remained at the tail end by the half, took the short way around the second turn closing the gap on some rivals and managed to pass a few runners while three wide running through the lane. PEPPER PATCH was prominent early in the mix up top between foes two wide on the first turn, settled in the second flight outside the eventual winner at the half mile pole, retreated under a busy ride unable to quicken with rivals making a move at the five sixteenths pole and came up empty in the four path in upper stretch. SKYDIGGER settled between horses in midfield, dropped back slightly by the half, was going in the wrong direction on the far turn by the quarter pole and was no menace in the drive to the wire. BAZOOKA JANE veered out sharply on the break, then was bumped out being forced seven wide by the inside rival heading into the initial bend, stalked near the rear three deep ahead of only a couple runners down the backside, made little progression going four wide around the final turn, lost its lane in the seven path at the top of the stretch and could not factor late understandably with all the poor luck through the race.
