A station race more than a running one: 68% of the field beaten on the stations, against 38% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:14 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:26 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
The field ran 3:30 faster at Sydney 2026 than at Brisbane 2026, a quicker course than most.
