1. SHOT OF THUNDER
2. CHAIRMAN'S CHOICE

13 - Elegant Fashion.
5 - Royal Code.
19 - Tyrolean.

chairmans choice.

Top tipping dolly007 & INTUITIVE who both selected SHOT OF THUNDER.

Wasn’t it a rough house affair, especially over the last 100m. Spotted one horse that nearly fell & lost all momentum, when looking to be in a winning position – not sure which one it was.

And to boot, multiple protests!

Run it again and I dare say we could end up with a different result.

Hi RJ,

The horse that "nearly fell" was one of my selections - SOCIETY BEAU. About 100m out Society Beau pig-rooted, the jock almost came off, lost his irons, and rode the remainder of the race sitting on the saddle with no irons! Great effort.


Not a good race for me, EXCELLERATOR was scratched and SCENIC PEAK ran a close 2nd, but was protested out of a place.
