| Bowermans Furniture The Shorts G2 3U OPEN ($201,700), 1100m 1:02.48 | |
| Race Synopsis: Terravista made it eight wins from 11 starts with a good
win here in Group Two class. He was smarty away and settled in fifth
place with a trail, following a strong pace. He improved nicely (wide)
rounding the home turn, took the lead at the 200m and went on
to score comfortably by two lengths, in smart time. He is a classy
sprinter with Group One potential. I’m All The Talk went straight to
the front as usual and raced along keenly at a solid pace. He held a
clear break until the 250m and then battled on quite well for second.
Famous Seamus was back in last place in the ten-horse field to the
turn. He went to the centre of the track at the 300m and ran on
particularly well for a very good third. Sessions was seventh on the
rails, switched deep on rounding the home turn and kept running
on quite well for (3.2 lengths) fourth. I’ve Got The Looks was near
last on the rails to the turn and kept to the rails in the straight,
making ground to finish (3.3 lengths) fifth while Whittington was
fourth on the rails to the turn and seemed to have every chance
before finishing (3.8 lengths) sixth. | |
