Hucklebuck was a little slowly away from the gates and settled down in seventh position between runners about four lengths from the leader Nite Rocker. He travelled smoothly in the run and secured a run between runners at the top of the straight. Nite Rocker kicked well clear at the top of the straight but the favourite motored home late, drawing away to score with his ears pricked. A very impressive first up performance by a most talented horse.
