| Pj's Irish Pub Golden Pendant G3 3UFM OPEN ($302,800), 1400m 1:22.65 | |
| Race Synopsis: Arabian Gold began smartly from her good barrier (2)
and settled in a nice spot, sixth on the rails, following the favourite
Catkins. She was full of running at the turn and tracked Catkins
through before switching to the rails on passing the 200m. She
then finished too well to score an impressive first-up win and looks
set for a very good spring campaign. It was also an excellent riding
performance by Blake Shinn. Catkins was quickly away and led early
before easing to race in third place on the rails. She under riding on
straightening, got a split to hit the lead at the 200m and then fought
on quite well, having no chance with the late closing winner, to finish
second. My Sabeel worked from her wide barrier (10) in the early
stages but was trapped three wide without cover in fourth place.
She moved up (still deep) rounding the home turn, challenged at the
200m and then battled on very well for third after a wide difficult trip
throughout. Neena Rock was well back in tenth place to the 600m. She went to the extreme outside rounding the home bend and then
put in a powerful finishing burst in the centre of the track for an eye-catching (1.7 lengths) fourth. It was her second promising effort
since coming from New Zealand and she should prove hard to beat,
especially over a bit more ground. Fine Bubbles was eighth, one off
the rails, went wide on straightening and kept running on to finish
a sound (1.8 lengths) fifth while Chintz made ground from ninth on
the rails to finish (2.9 lengths) sixth. | |
