May 25, 2019 FLEMINGTON 2800m $401.20 LR (2:55.15)
Race Synopsis:A thrilling finish of the distance feature saw the consistent Steel Prince hold on tenaciously to get his maiden stakes win and eighth career success, which now includes five wins in succession. He was sixth with a circuit to run and down the back straight just forward of midfield. From the 1000m he moved up three wide and turning in was just behind the leaders. At the 300m he co-led, put his nose in front at the 200m but was challenged hard on his outer. In a ding-dong go he never relented and just got home in a head bobber. Surprise Baby was fifth last at the 800m, moved up and alongside the winner at the 500m and co-led at the 400m. From the 300m he would not lie down, went head-for-head, stride for stride with the winner only to lose by a head. Eastender was well back at the top of the straight and when clear finished solidly for third from Alfarris, who was handy enough at the 400m then ground away for fourth.
