In a close finish, the progressive James Cummings-trained filly Epidemic recorded her first stakes success and her fifth win in ten starts in scoring here. She drifted back early on from her good barrier (3) and settled back in 12th place (between runners) in a packed field before getting through closer to the inner at the home turn. She went to third at the 200m and finished best for a narrow but good win. Pomelo showed good pace from her wide barrier (13) before working across to take the lead at the 800m. She grabbed a break on straightening and kept fighting back well for second, staging a game performance after her early efforts. Just Dreaming, favourite in an open betting race, settled in sixth place (between runners), got a split on turning for home and went to fourth at the 200m. She then kept making ground for a close up third.
