Niccanova wins Magic Millions Bernborough Hcp, Listed, $200,000 at Eagle Farm, 1600m.

Niccanova staged a very good effort in winning here, his ninth win and his fourth at stakes level in 23 starts.

After being caught deep from his difficult barrier (12), James Orman elected to go forward and the gelding dashed to the front at the 1000m.

He then raced a bit keenly but still held a clear advantage on turning for home. He then dug deep under his top weight (59kg) when challenged to score a game win.

Looks Like Elvis was quickly away from his outside barrier (14) and immediately went to the front before easing to settle in fifth place on the rails. He got into clear running on straightening, looked dangerous when he challenged at the 200m and then battled well for second after a good ride by Brad Stewart.

Cool Chap raced in eighth place, one off the rails, commenced his move on turning for home and ran on really well to take third, finishing just in front of Over Exposure who made ground from midfield for fourth.
