2019 Grandstand Cup Listed March 23 - Ascot

3 minute read

Achernar Star wins Grandstand Cup Listed $100,000 at Ascot, 1500m.

Favourite and top-weight Achernar Star made it back-toback stakes and career wins, his sixth from 18 starts, and he would have been most unlucky not to win. He was away in second then took up a lovely trail in third (rails), a position he held past the 800m to the 500m from where he was pocketed well into the straight.

He pulled three wide at the 200m, took a few strides to steady before edging out to a deserved and hardy half-length win.

Variation sat one out in sixth at the 500m, pulled four wide into the straight and kept up a strong run to the line for second.

Tellem We're Comin was last turning in and wide out ran home very well to grab third in a photo with Mizlicki, who came out of the pack between runners for fourth
