| R1 ROSEHILL | 27 September 2014 |
| Gloaming Stakes G3 3 OPEN ($200,800), 1800m 1:49.48 | |
| Race Synopsis: Sweynesse was away well but was restrained to settle
down last two wide about six lengths from the early leader Lord
Beckworth who set a solid pace. Sweynesse travelled well into the
race tracking Pounamu into the race three wide from the 600m
before turning for home four wide. He quickened smartly when
asked for his effort at the 300m to hit the front at the 200m and draw
away to a comfortable victory to remain undefeated in four runs.
Diamond Valores was a little slowly away before being used up
to initially settle down in third, one out one back. He improved his
position at the 1200m to race on the quarters of Lord Beckworth.
He pressured the leader approaching the home turn, cornering
for home in front before kicking clear at the 300m. He battled then
fought on gamely the whole way to the line finding the winner a
little too good. A sound effort in defeat. Pounamu settled down on
the back of the leaders in third position on the fence before being
shuffled back to fourth one out with a trail. He commenced his run
three wide from the 600m with the favourite tracking him into the
race. He could not match the winners turn of foot and stayed on at
one pace, for a well beaten third. | |
