00:00A real good type, this daughter of Down by the Seaside,
00:02debuting for the Jack Stable from the outside of the gate.
00:07Some talented youngsters here in this one, the Woodland Stud, two-year-old
00:11maiden, race five, first leg of the quaddi.
00:13Good luck if you've had a go at the quaddi tonight, pretty popular result in
00:16the early quad, and the main quad is about to get
00:19underway. Late scratching ultimate safari number nine,
00:23taking out Vets Advice 732, and there's the light up now, the two-year-olds are
00:28From the inside, Norman's Girl began well,
00:30trying to push up and hold, but the stable mate's going up, Evil Eye to go on
00:34by, and sliding forward at the start, MJ
00:37Jazz, but it's going to be parked. Now a little deeper on the track, Wicked
00:39Hangover, just creeping its way forward three deep. Speed's not over quick in the
00:43early stages, guaranteed end, pulling hard at the
00:45moment, 1-1, and three back along the inside, taking the shortcut, think fast,
00:50run fast. Galloping back in the field there,
00:52racing to keenly guaranteed end, and jumped off stride.
00:55The favourites going to lob into the 1-1, or one of them, Coastal Drive, see the
00:58stars got off the inside back row. It's about to work up onto the back of
01:02its co-favour, although no, Kate Gath's going to pop out of the 1-1 on Coastal
01:05Drive, and go up and sit outside of the lead, a
01:08second last 2 below, and at the tail end of the field on
01:11settling down, Soho Playgirl. Well head down the back straight, 40.6
01:15was the lead time, little bit stop start in the early stages, and it's Evil Eye
01:19who's out on top, leading its stable mate,
01:22in the trail, and sliding up under a good grip, Coastal Drive,
01:26to race parked, got there comfortably, and one out, one back, wicked hangover.
01:30On the inside, think fast, run fast, it's racing fifth.
01:33In the running line, see the stars, racing sixth as they head into the lane
01:38to complete a lap. 2 below follows it, it's four back on the outside,
01:42buried back over on the peg line, after being handy early, MJ
01:45Jazz, guaranteed end, is back at the end of the field, second last, and the last
01:49one with it was Soho Playgirl. Down to get the bell, 30.9, first quarter
01:53in the woodland stud, two-year-old maiden,
01:55the pacemakers had it pretty good, Evil Eye, goes out of the straight,
01:59leading by a metre and a half, pulling hard on the outside, Coastal Drive,
02:03third on the pegs, awaiting on the Hurrah Detroito sprint lane for its shot at
02:07stable mate, Norman's Girl. Think fast, run fast, follows it, wicked
02:11hangovers, 1-1, then three back on the outside, see the
02:14stars, the equal favourite with the Coastal
02:17Drive, is about 10 off the front, back on the inside, looking for a way
02:21clear, MJ Jazz, then 2 below, guaranteed end, and Soho Playgirl.
02:2531.4, they went even slower through that second section,
02:28and it's Evil Eye, who led narrowly, going up to look it in the eye, is Coastal
02:32Drive, the favourite, it's travelling boldly,
02:34in the 1-1, wicked hangover, the other favourite, see the stars, three wide, makes
02:39its run at the quarter, 10 off the front, but she's winding up,
02:41held up for a run, was Norman's Girl, weaving through, was the think fast, run
02:45fast, Tupelo's very deep, and running on from way back, yeah, five wide as they
02:49head into the straight, 29.1, they went down the back, Evil Eye
02:53kicking on, on the outside, Coastal Drive, wicked hangover,
02:56down the outside, the swoopers, see the stars, and Tupelo right down the
03:00outside, the debutant, see the stars, took the lead, Tupelo's dive bombing it,
03:04they'll hit it together, great win on debut, Tupelo, Tupelo's got
03:08up to grab, see the stars, and a great run too, by wicked hangover,
03:12they got clear of the others, close for fourth, the Stablemates, Norman's Girl,
03:16and also Evil Eye with them, think fast, run fast, Coastal Drive, guaranteed end,
03:20Soho Playgirl, and the last one to pull up was MJ Jazz, 28.1,
03:25they flew up the lane, 159.8 was the mile rating there for Elderberry Park,
03:30seven the winner, Tupelo has been able to charge down the outside and win on
03:34debut, said before the race, she's a beautiful
03:37filly, lovely type, and she had to sit back in the field,
03:41followed, see the stars, tracked him every step of the way,
03:46and she's been able to...
