Slow to begin. Near the 1200m, raced in restricted room and had to be steadied. Held up for clear running approaching the home turn. Improved onto heels leaving the 200m before shifting inwards to secure clear running.

Began awkwardly and bumped with BRIARS KINGDOM and lost ground. Shifted in and had hindquarters turned by SNEAK PREVIEW leaving the 1300m. Raced in restricted room approaching the 100m between HILO, which shifted out under pressure, and SNEAK PREVIEW, which was taken in marginally by INDISPENSABLE.
