The durable Scott Brunton-trained gelding Hellova Street took his record to 15 wins (and 15 placings) from 36 starts in taking out his eighth stakes victory here. He went to the front as expected, was pressured to a degree from the 800m, got a break on straightening and showed his quality by drawing clear to win decisively. Lord Da Vinci had a good run in third place on the rails before moving up (wide) at the home turn. He then went to the outside rail (looking for better going), challenged shortly afterwards but then found the winner too good and battled on nicely for second. Gee Gees Top Notch was seventh on the rails, got through nearing the home turn and kept fighting on well for third.
