British-bred import Archery Peak put up an impressive effort in winning here at his third Australian start. He settled comfortably back in last place in the ten-horse field, behind a steady pace before improving (wide) from the 800m. He was widest of all at the home turn, took the lead at the 200m and then went on to win well under his (60.5kg) top weight. He looks a good stayer likely to progress to better things in this country.
