Yet to finish further back than fourth in now eight starts, Astor did well to win after being headed at the 300m. She began best but did not find a clear lead until the 1000m, taking advantage of her inside barrier draw.

Samantha Collett pushed her two lengths clear at the 600m and turned for home still clear but was headed at the 300m. Collett was having none of it, sat down and went aggressively for the line. The filly kicked again and soon pulled clear to win by a length and three quarters, her fourth and maiden black-type win.

A good run from Caesour’s Dream who sat second behind the winner to the straight, levelled up and took over at the 300m but was not able to answer the winner’s kick yet a nice second all the same.

Third home was Ladynadel who was fourth turning in and ran on fairly well without ever looking like catching the first two from The Great Southern who plugged away next to the fence for fourth.
