No Testa I wouldnt say it was a slowly run race at all. They broke 1.36 (just)and took 35.52 to run their last 600.In that case they ran the firt 1000m. in 1.00.47. In my book that is a genuine pace where all runners have their chance. Granted there have ben plenty of big miles at Randwick run at a faster pace but in my experience they never sit and sprint.
