The winner of this very small G3 juvenile event at New Plymouth was the maiden Magneto that enjoyed a good trail third the inner then shot through closest in turning for home. The colt won by two and a quarter lengths in 1:10.50 to record his first win and it came at Stakes class too for good measure. The winners and where they came from on the home turn were second (neck back the inner), second (one-off the inside and a neck back), led (four length lead on the fence), third (one-off the inside and three lengths from the leader), third (one-off the inside and half a length from the leader), second (one-off the inside and a head from the leader), fourth (one-off the inside and two lengths from the leader), second (one-off the inside and five lengths from the leader) and sixth (four-off the inside and four lengths from the leader). Today was his third run in Stakes class and he had prior to today placed third behind Quattro Quinta at Listed level but today turned the tables easily. He looks to be a colt that is getting better with racing and he has tactical speed too so more is in store wherever they may go next. Quattro Quinta had to bow to a superior performance on the day when second but he has built up a tidy record so far of never having finished worse than second in five outings, which includes two wins (one at Listed level). He sat second the outer but could not accelerate like the winner did the run home but still fought on. Wolfgang ran third which means the same three juveniles from the trifecta that did so at Listed level prior at Trentham filled those positions today. He raced fourth the outer and moved up turning for home and was a third at the 200m and held that position albeit beaten over three and a quarter lengths. Madam Sass on debut ran fourth after a slow start and then reaching fifth the inner across the top, The filly was fourth the inner at the 100m and looks a winner in waiting. The rear trio were beaten over nine lengths and up to over ten lengths with the first starter Ima Roca Bee showing leader speed before stopping fast. This was a tepid G3 event and its rating must come under pressure as the same Listed trifecta albeit in slightly different order happened today that occurred last start at Listed level.
