Hard to know quite what to make of this maiden race, which was turned into something of a procession by MAORI, whose previous two outings had amounted to little when he was trained in France and was running on heavy ground. Now with Mark Johnston, and running on a much sounder surface, he fairly bounded away with this contest. We will have a better idea of his ability when he runs again, presumably in handicap company.

Herrera, upped in trip, was tapped for foot entering the last two furlongs,but came home strongly to snatch second place well inside the last. She clearly stays well and she is now qualified for a handicap mark.

Hellzapoppin and Enderby Light showed a glimpse of ability, but Drum Major was disappointing.
