| R6 ROSEHILL | 29 November 2014 |
| Festival Stakes LR 3U Qlty ($100,000), 1500m 1:28.51 | |
| Race Synopsis: A close finish with only half a length separating the first four horses. The winner I’m Imposing settled back in tenth place between runners, following a good tempo and remained there to the home turn. He switched deep at the 200m and came with a late run to grab a last-stride win. Estonian Princess travelled well in fifth place, commenced her run shortly after straightening, challenged at the 200m and fought well for second. Strawberry Boy went to the front and ran along at a good pace. He grabbed a break on turning for home and fought gamely for a close third. The favourite Generalife missed the start and was last in the early stages but he quickly recovered from his good barrier (4) and settled in sixth place. He moved up nicely rounding the home turn, looked the winner when he went to second at the 200m and then battled on for a close fourth. Sir Moments went back from his wide barrier (11) and settled second last in the 13-horse field. He improved along the rails from the 800m, switched between runners at the 200m and made good ground, being blocked in the closing stages for fifth, beaten just under two lengths. It was a good effort. The stayer Multilateral also did well, running on from last to finish (2.5 lengths) sixth. | |
