| The Other Woman Todman Stakes G2 2CG OPEN ($301,700), 1200m 1:10.68 | |
| Race Synopsis: The half-brother to multiple Group One-winning filly Guelph (Exceed And Excel), Ghibellines ($41) came into Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) calculations with a surprise win here, racing in a cross-over noseband for the first time which may have helped him settle better.
He was slowly away, was last in the ten-horse field to the 600m, but got a nice run through at the home turn. He went to fourth at the 300m and then finished too well to win by a length and a quarter in a career-best performance.
Unencumbered did not show much early pace and settled about eighth, between runners. He switched across heels on straightening, put in a good run to challenge at the 200m but found the winner a bit too strong in the latter stages to take second.
Cornrow began well from his inside barrier (1) but drifted back to settle seventh on the rails. He was held up for a run on straightening, eased wide at the 200m and ran on nicely for third, looking suited to further.
Wandjina raced outside the leader (Lockroy) until into the home straight and held on fairly well for fourth, beaten three lengths, with Risen From Doubt finishing fifth after appearing to have every chance.
Joint favourite Jabali had a good trip, fourth one out and one back, but was under pressure on straightening and only battled on to finish seventh, beaten four and a quarter lengths. | |
