Narrowly beaten in her lead-up trial over 849m on September 17, Catch Me, a $625,000 graduate of the 2018 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale, was always wide yet raced away late to an impressive win here. When they settled she was four and five wide back of midfield however rider Kerrin McEvoy had her improving to be handy enough but widest turning in. McEvoy kept pumping and the filly responded well, caught the leader inside the 200m and finished too strongly, breaking 57 seconds for the 1000m in an impressive performance.. Diddles set the pace away from the fence into the straight and to the 200m, was caught by the winner but fought on to hold second. Mayaaseh had a rocky run from the 400m and got out late to fly into third from Amercement who, from last, kept on well to the line in a good line up for fourth.
