| Aami Victoria Derby G1 3 OPEN ($2,010,000), 2500m 2:34.31 | |
| Race Synopsis: The Darren Weir-trained colt Extra Brut staged an impressive staying performance in winning this Group 1 feature. He was eased and settled near the tail of the 16-horse field from his wide barrier (13). He was still well back before improving (wide) rounding the home turn, sprinted to take the lead at the 200m and then fought gamely for a very good win. Stars Of Carrum settled in 12th place on the rails, improved (between runners) at the home turn, got a split at the 200m, challenged shortly afterwards and then fought gamely for second. Chapada raced back in seventh place, improved (behind runners) at the home turn but only gained clear running over the latter stages before finishing on to take third, looking somewhat unlucky. Sikorsky raced back in seventh place, improved from the 600m, briefly got to the front at the 300m before holding on for (3.2 lengths) fourth. The favourite Thinkin' Big raced in sixth place (one off the rails) improved nicely coming to the home turn but just battled from that point for (7.4 lengths) 12th, appearing tested by the solidly run 2500m. | |
