Vega Magic took his impressive record to 12 wins from 17 starts in taking out his second Group One success here. Having his second start since resuming after his win in The Goodwood (Gr, 1, 1200m) at Morphettville in May, he went straight to the front from his good barrier (2) and the steadied the pace. Craig Williams dashed him clear on turning for home and he was not threatened from that point to win well. Multiple Group One winner Black Heart Bart settled in a handy fourth (one out and one back), moved up nearing the home turn and kept fighting well in the sprint home for second in a sound effort at his second run this preparation. Tosen Stardom raced in fifth place, on the rails, before getting along the inner (after being blocked earlier on) at the 200m. He then finished really well for a late-closing third. Hey Doc raced a bit keenly in stages (due to the moderate early tempo) in third place before getting through to second at the 200m. He then kept fighting on nicely in the sprint home for (2.7 lengths) fourth. Le Romain raced in sixth place, one off the rails, but in a bid (wide) coming to the home turn and then fought on well for (2.9 lengths) fifth after not being suited by the tempo while the New Zealander Jon Snow surprised with his early pace to race outside the leader (Vega Magic) before holding on for (3.2 lengths) sixth and a nice first-up run over a distance well short of this liking.
