Riziz wins 2015 W Hill Penny Edition Stakes Listed $100000, Morphettville Parks (SA), 1400m.
Riziz was quickly away before easing to race in second place, following a moderate tempo (first 800m 51.17). He moved up well nearing the home turn, went to the front at the 200m and fought back to win well after enjoying a good trip.
Favourite Alpine Eagle, resuming after his second in the Australian Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m) in March, settled in second last place in the nine-horse field. He pushed wider and into clear running rounding the home turn but was still about seventh on straightening, and under riding as the pace increased. He then made good ground in the sprint home for a promising first-up second and will appreciate a more genuine tempo and a longer trip.
Go Dreaming raced in third place, moved up three deep at the home turn and fought on nicely to just hold third in a photo.
