Stolen Dance wins 2015 Eagle Technology Stakes Group 3 NZ$70,000 at Ellerslie (NZ), 1600m.
Drawn midfield, Stolen Dance jumped with them and jockey Danielle Johnson then found the fence and took up the running. She cruised along in front but was pressured by Kelly O’Reilly before the last corner who sat close a neck back. Into the straight, the daughter of Alamosa took advantage of the rail and put two lengths on them and, while urged along, the field did not make an impression and at the line she was still a length clear - a good, front-running effort.
Rasa Lila was last after the jump and remained there until the 600m then raced around the field, very wide, into the straight. She kept up a strong gallop out in the middle of the track all the way to the post for a good second, but too late.
Silverdale was also wide approaching the turn (just in front of Rasa Lila) and ran on strongly in the straight just failing to hold out Rasa Lila at the post.
