K.J 'john' Allman Mdn Plate
The David Hayes-trained three-year-old This Cat Rocks ($1.50 fav) improved on two placed runs to score his first win in easy style. He began smartly from his inside barrier (1) and went straight to the lead. He travelled comfortably in front, setting a moderate tempo before dashing clear shortly after straightening and then went on to win by just over four and a quarter lengths being eased down approaching the post. *ANZ
