Well Sprung stepped up quickly in class after his debut second in a 2YO Maiden (1200m) at Cranbourne on 19 July to win this stakes race in good style. He was very smartly away and soon crossed to the front. He then steadied the pace noticeably (first 600m 37.09) before lifting the tempo and grabbed a break rounding the home turn. He was not seriously threatened from that point to win well.

Danuki raced outside the leader and eventual winner, was beaten for pace at the home turn and then battled on again well in the straight for a good second.

Odyssey Moon was trapped deep without cover from his difficult barrier (10). He improved (three wide without cover) to be third from the 600m and battled on in the straight to hold the minor placing after a wide trip.

Favourite El Greco was sixth, between runners, fanned deep (under riding) at the home turn and made ground in the sprint home for a sound (2.8 lengths) fourth.

Boston Light was slowly away, raced in seventh place on the rails but was held up for clear running until the 100m, making late ground for a promising (4.1 lengths) fifth on debut. He is a horse to watch.
