Le Pine Funerals Easter Cup (G3)

WT: 54kg Type: OPEN

Leebaz, drawn out at barrier eight, was quickly into stride and took over the pace after 200m. Allowed to get balanced, Leebaz then fought his apprentice rider Dylan Dunn so the jockey let out the reigns and they drew away to lead by three lengths as they passed the 1400m. At the 1000m they continued to cruise along and widened their lead to more than four lengths. Down the side at the 700m the lead shrunk to two lengths and on the last corner any advantage was gone as the field bunched for the run home. Hugging the rails Leebaz led narrowly at the 300m but at the 200m Guardini edged past yet Leebaz would not give in and he fought back, kicking in the last two strides to grab the lead back just short of the post for a tenacious win. Guardini was a distant third down the side then moved up three wide to be alongside the leaders turning in, took over (narrowly) and set for the judge. Leebaz on his inner refused to lie down and these two battled it out to the line. Observational was well back, second last at the 1000m but had to go widest of all into the last corner and made his run out in the middle of the track, keeping up a strong run but just coming up short at the line.
