R7 ROSEHILL | 28 March 2015 |
The Bmw G1 3U OPEN ($1,526,200), 2400m 2:29.50 | |
Race Synopsis: Hartnell travelled well in fifth place before making a quick early run (as To The World) made his move, nearing the 600m. He fanned deep rounding the home turn, hit the front at the 300m and proved the superior stayer, drawing clear to win by just over a length in a most impressive performance. To The World raced in sixth place. He made his move coming to the 600m but was forced very wide rounding the home turn. He challenged strongly at the 300m but was outstayed in the latter stages for a very sound second at his Australian debut and at this first run since December. Beaten Up raced in third place to the home turn. He moved up well at the turn and then fought gamely for a good third, a half neck behind the second placegetter. Who Shot Thebarman was last in the 11-horse field to the home turn. He put in a run between runners from the 300m and finished on particularly well for (2 lengths) fourth in an impressive build-up for the Sydney Cup (Gr 1, 3200m) on 11 April. Protectionist was second last to the home turn. He then kept running on well, making good ground for (2.2 lengths) fifth and should appreciate the step up to 3200m in the upcoming Sydney Cup. Silent Achiever was eighth, one off the rails, got a good run through to be handy at the 300m and then battled on for (2.4 lengths) sixth. Lucia Valentina was near last to the 800m, made a wide run nearing the turn and then steadily made ground for (3.1 lengths) seventh. |
