Ortensia Stakes (LR)

Type: Qlty

Analysis: Satin Shoes began very fast from her outside barrier and eventually landed on the rails behind the leader. Rounding the turn she moved up alongside the leader but Blake Shinn had a firm grip on her and bided his time patiently. He gave her some rein at the 200m and she sprinted to the front holding on for a narrow but impressive win. Anise raced in sixth position in a perfect spot two off the fence. At the 300m she switched to the outside and let down with a strong burst. She looked ominous when racing up to the leader’s quarters at the 100m but the winner was too tough. Border Rebel enjoyed a cosy run on the rails behind the speed. In the straight he was boxed in and could not get a clear run. He got out late and worked to the line strongly. The favourite Zaratone ran his usual honest race leading the field until headed in the straight by winner, fighting on well for fourth. *ANZ
