Daily Telegraph Ming Dynasty G3 3 OPEN ($126,000), 1400m 1:26.97 | |
Race Synopsis: Team Hawkes-trained colt Swear resumed after winning over 1300m at Hawkesbury on debut in April to record an impressive first-up win. He settled nicely outside the leader (Skylight Glow), got the better of that filly at the 100m before going on to win comfortably. He looks a colt with a bright future. High Mist settled back in second last place in the six-horse field, switched between runners at the home turn, went to the inner at the 200m and fought well for a good second. He should appreciate further and also a firmer track. Skylight Glow was smartly away, went straight to the front and then steadied the pace (first 800m 51.01). She was only headed at the 100m and then held on for a very good third in a most promising first-up run. Taj Mahal was slow to move, raced in last place before fanning deep at the 300m. He then kept making good ground, in the sprint home, in the centre of the track for (2.9 lengths) fourth, putting up a really good effort. |
