Listed Balaklava Cup, September 3 - Balaklava

Trainer Tony McEvoy captured South Australia's richest provincial race, the Balaklava Cup with Longshoreman on Wednesday.

Consistent six-year-old Longshoreman won this Listed race in impressive fashion.

He settled last in the 13-horse field and was still well back at the 800m. He improved nicely between runners nearing the home turn and was going well but was blocked at the 300m.

He then got a split at the 200m and burst clear shortly afterwards and went on to win by just over three lengths.

It was a smart performance.

Justify That had a good trip behind the leaders in third place. He challenged at the 400m and then kept battling on for a sound second.

Albonetti was just past midfield before improving between runners on passing the 800m. She fanned deep at the home turn and ran on quite well for third.

The favourite Gamblin’ Guru was fourth on the rails, was blocked on straightening but obtained clear running from the 200m and then disappointing, tiring to finish ninth beaten just over eight lengths.
