Chris Waller-trained filly Awoke scored a narrow first up win, her third win in nine starts to date. She settled in fifth place on the rails from her inside barrier (1), got through to the third on turning for home and finished a bit too well to grab a last-stride win. The Pharoah went to the front, looked the winner when he dashed clear on straightening, only to be caught right at the post for a close second after running a bold race at his second run this preparation.
