3 1 GRAND STORE (CH087) Z Purton -- Did plenty of work early to go forward and cross to the fence in the lead after the 800m. was pressured for most of the trip by a runner to its outside, but had enough in reserve to finish in third position.
4 10 DARPANA (CK256) W C Marwing B/TT Copped some interference approaching the 800m and was shuffled back to travel towards the rear along the paint. Made nice ground in the home straight.
