Analyis of the race

With the ground drying out quickly, the ball fell firmly into INDIAN STAR's court. According to trainer David Evans the veteran found himself in front too soon, but once galvanised by Tony Evans he never looked like being reeled in. Monash Lad did his best but had been under some pressure much longer than Indian Star, who was only let down approaching the last.

Night Groove was a distant third and may struggle to get his head in front even at this level.
