Grand Prix Stakes (G3)

Age: 3yo Type: OPEN

Order Again followed his good second in the Rough Habit Plate (Gr 3, 2000m) at Doomben on 13 May with a narrow but really good win here. He settled in eighth place, improved well (between runners) nearing the home turn, took the lead coming to the 200m and then fought back to score a game win in a photo finish. The SA Derby (Gr 1, 2500m) winner Volatile Mix settled towards the tail of the 14-horse field, moved up (widest of all) nearing the home turn, got to third at the 200m and continued to finish strongly to fail by the narrowest of margins in an impressive staying effort. Violate had a good trip in third place, on the rails, before getting through to take the lead at the 300m. He then held on well to take the minor placing. Of the more favoured runners: Shocking Luck led the field at a good tempo until turning for home but just battled in the affected Eagle Farm conditions to finish (9.2 lengths) sixth, racing well below his previous consistent and impressive form while the Victoria Derby (Gr 1, 2500m) winner Prized Icon also raced well below expectations in the conditions, finishing (27 lengths) 11th.
