Duretto comes down under off some good European around others who are to race in Australia this Spring.
Anna-Lisa says Duretto is a straight forward horse who won the Chester Stakes six weeks ago.
Godolphin's Best Solution recorded his third successive Group 1 win in taking out this prestige event at his first Australian start after victories in Germany in August and September. He went forward from his difficult barrier (15) and after being trapped deep, Pat Cosgrave eased him to settle in fourth place. After then tracking a very steady pace, he made a quick move coming to the 600m, grabbed a break on turning for home and then fought back very gamely to score in a photo in an impressive performance under his top weight (57.5kg). Homesman had a good trip in third place on the rails from his good barrier (4). He moved up at the home turn, challenged strongly at the 200m and then battled gamely for a close second, just finding the winner (who conceded him 4.5kg) too good. The Cliffsofmoher settled well in ninth place, improved nicely (between runners) nearing the home turn, challenged on passing the 200m and then battled gamely for a very good third. Duretto raced in eighth place, improved (between runners) to be fourth at the home turn and then fought well to hold that position (beaten 2.9 lengths) in a really good effort at his first Australian start. The Taj Mahal settled midfield (wide with cover) from his difficult barrier (17) before James McDonald made a sudden move at the 800m due to the pedestrian pace to challenge approaching the home turn. He then battled really well for (3.7 lengths) fifth. Favourite Kings Will Dream raced in 11th place, on the rails, got a run (between runners) at the home turn, got into clear running shortly afterwards and then ran on quite well for (3.9 lengths) sixth. Youngstar settled back in 15th place, went deep on straightening and made ground, in the sprint home to finish (4.7 lengths) seventh in a very sound performance under the circumstances.
