| Coolmore Classic G1 3UFM OPEN ($607,000), 1500m 1:28.28 | |
| Race Synopsis: Highly consistent Ron Quinton-trained mare Daysee Doom, a good fourth in this race last year, scored this time with yet another game performance, taking her record to nine wins (with five placings) from 19 starts. She was smartly away from her wide barrier (14) and eventually crossed to settle outside the leader (Flippant). She put pressure on that runner rounding the home turn, got to the front at the 200m and then dug deep when challenged to score narrowly, but impressively. Oregon's Day travelled nicely in fifth place, one off the rails, responded to riding on straightening to challenge at the 100m and fought well under her limit weight (51kg) for a close second. Silent Sedition raced in ninth, improved (deep) nearing the 600m, commenced a good run from the 300m and kept finishing well for a close-up third, her second placing in successive years in this race. Eckstein raced in tenth place, went deep from the 300m and ran on well for (0.6 lengths) fourth. Prompt Response began well, raced in fifth place (without cover) moved up coming to the home turn and battled on well for a close-up fifth while the winner's stablemate Dixie Blossoms ran on very well from 11th at the home turn for sixth, beaten less than a length in a packed finish. | |
