All Over Bosanova wins 2017 Daybreak Lover Plate Listed $125,000 at Doomben (QLD), 1200m.
Barrier three versus barrier 13 could have spelled the difference between the first two home, reversing their placings from their previous meeting.
Favourite All Over Bosanova (3) jumped well and immediately took up the running. She was narrowly headed at the 600m but never lost the rails advantage, taking over again with 500m to run. Rider Luke Rolls sat quietly as they straightened, gave the filly a shake at the 200m and then held on to the line.
Tactical Advantage jumped and settled outside the leader before dropping back to fourth passing the 600m. Handy enough turning in he had nowhere to go and only inside the 100m did a gap finally present itself, flashing through but too late.
Rare Occurrence sat outside the pace throughout, tried to stay with the winner and never gave up to the line. Double Superlative turned in five wide from midfield and ran on steadily for a good fourth.
