Gold Rush winning the J Swap Matamata Breeders' Stks Picture: Trish Dunell

The field jumped in line and Gold Rush, from her 5 draw, was very handy, one off the fence. Starting the bend she moved to within a length of the leader (Astara) but into the straight was third and not making much impression. Inside the 200m she was battling to hold third then grabbed the bit and fought her way past the pacemaker and in a gutsy effort, stuck her nose out just in time to land the prize.

Favourite Sassy 'N' Smart was reluctant to load and had to be blindfolded and was last down the back straight. She moved sharply into the race rounding the last corner and was widest turning in. She accelerated between the 300m and 200m and that momentum carried her to be alongside the leaders at the 100m, where she looked the winner but Gold Rush gutted past on the inner to grab the narrow win.

What Choux Want was handy, one off the fence around the corner and challenged the leader as they straightened. She took a narrow lead at the 200m and fought very well right to the line to be a close up third.
