1 | 3 | FORTUNE GIGGLES (S346) | N Rawiller | B | Jumped fairly, restrained behind the slow pace in 3rd or 4th on rails, soon came under pressure to challenge after straightening, fought on dourly to assert authority near the finish. |
2 | 4 | BEST JADE TRIUMPH (P070) | B Prebble | CP | Taken back from the widest gate, took closer order to wide in midfield down the back straight, held similar position rounding home bend before quickening from 5-wide into straight to hit the front briefly over 200 out, soon headed. |
