2 1 WINWIN COMBO (CB277) B Prebble -- Tended to hang in when 2-wide and 1L back in 3rd at 1000 M, over 2Ls back in 5th taking home turn, gave chase to winner but never looked like getting past.
3 9 WE'RE BUDDIES (CC142) W M Lai B/SR 4Ls back in 7th on fence at 1100 M, 3Ls down in midfield turning for home, hung in under pressure at 200 M, did just enough for 3rd place.
