RIDE FOR THE PURSE broke a step slow the was taken hold of in tight losing his path soon after the start, improved down the backside to sit in mid-pack by the half, was roused at the five sixteenths pole making a good rally inside by the quarter marker, loomed boldly in the four path straightening out for the drive and powered past the frontrunner quickly at the sixteenth poke to win going away. TEMPLE HALL was hard held left alone on the engine in the early going, controlled the pace moving well in hand around the oval, began to shorten stride not switching leads at the furlong pole still holding on top, had nothing in reserve unable to counter the Kate charge by the winner outside at the sixteenth pole but still finished up well enough to be a solid second best at the wire. MAC GOWAN travelled three deep while sitting back off the leader at the half, crept closer going three wide outside two runners around the bend, made a bid for the lead in the three path still with horses on either side at the top of the stretch but stalled with its run in the final furlong capturing the show money. BEE ME had the fence position keeping an eye on the runaway leader down the back straight, kept pace while inside a couple of rivals throughout the turn, hugged the rail in the mix in upper stretch but could only finish up one paced in the late running settling on the fringes in the end. GUS'S DRUMBEET was forwardly placed initially travelling four deep outside of horses, dropped back to co- trail with an inside foe at the half, started to pick up the bit three wide in midturn, moved to the five path taking the corner but failed to fire in the final furlong outside of rivals. SOMEKINDA MISCHIEF was unhurried at the rear in the early going, travelled three wide through the bend making no progression outside rivals, swung out widest in the six path turning for home but could only managed to pass a leg weary inside runner at the head of the lane. THANKS YOUR HONOUR broke out on the start, had a good position between runners tracking the line speed leader along the backside, was roused chasing the frontrunner midway on the turn but could not quicken with rivals on either side who were commencing a run, angled to the four path at the top of the lane and folded in upper stretch.
