00:00 Down by the seaside, three-year-old gelding Nathan Jack.
00:05 And so far its starting prices have been $110 and $133.
00:10 It was beaten as the threes on pop last time.
00:12 It's now $1.15.
00:15 So that's happened just in the last couple of minutes.
00:17 It's gone from about $130 odd to $1.15.
00:19 Which means Ken Leet no doubt will be getting out its $3.30 out to $6.
00:24 So coming along, we've got a field of 10.
00:28 The Matarangka Park Standard Breads pace.
00:30 $17.40 the journey.
00:32 And it's Skinny Dip who's the favourite.
00:36 Standby, there's the green light.
00:38 And they're underway.
00:40 The mobile speeds away, the Tab Mobile.
00:42 And the first one away, early stages, is Binalong Knight who's up on the pace.
00:46 And so too is Skinny Dip going forward.
00:48 Now drifting right back there is Sporty Banyula back through the field.
00:52 It's settling down about fourth last.
00:53 As we see the favourite Skinny Dip go on with the job now.
00:56 And leads over Binalong Knight.
00:58 Now likeable rogues, the runner moving up on the outside without cover.
01:01 Third next on the inside is Vinn Number.
01:03 Out wide is Ken Lee for Taylor Osman.
01:06 It's three deep and on the move going up.
01:08 That's the second favourite out wide on the track.
01:10 It's being tracked up in turn by Just A Bit Sweet.
01:13 No more promises between runners as they come down the straight.
01:16 And further back on the field, then also Sassy on the peg.
01:19 Sporty Banyula second last.
01:20 And going back to last was Dallas Charlie.
01:23 Here comes Just A Bit Sweet who goes around the outside.
01:26 Not sure it's going to get the lead though.
01:28 Skinny Dip will drive up on the inside.
01:30 Ken Lee's got cover now.
01:31 The lead time 8.6 in the first quarter.
01:34 In 30, out of the straight they go.
01:36 Around 900 metres remaining.
01:38 And it's Skinny Dip, the short prize favourite, leads out by three.
01:41 Just A Bit Sweet running second.
01:42 Then came Binalong Knight back at the leader running third.
01:45 Ken Lee the outside running fourth.
01:47 That second quarter in 30.2.
01:49 Into the back straight.
01:50 Further back is Vin Number who's three back the inside running fifth.
01:54 Then Likeable Rogue the running line.
01:56 Next on the inside is also Sassy.
01:58 Outside of it no more promises.
01:59 The last pair, Dallas Charlie the pegs.
02:01 And also Sporty Banyula.
02:03 So along the back straight about 500 metres remaining.
02:06 And still the leader here is Skinny Dip by two over Just A Bit Sweet.
02:10 And further back now, Ken Lee's pulling out three deep.
02:13 So here comes Taylor Osman with Ken Lee.
02:15 It puts in its burst being followed by Binalong Knight.
02:18 Out wide no more promises.
02:19 And Likeable Rogue in the middle.
02:21 That third quarter in 30.6.
02:23 So they really didn't sprint up through the third split.
02:25 And it's Skinny Dip the odds on favourite.
02:27 Lead over Just A Bit Sweet.
02:28 And further back Binalong Knight the inside.
02:30 Ken Lee the runner coming down the outer.
02:32 In the straight Skinny Dip lead.
02:34 Down the outside Ken Lee battling away Just A Bit Sweet.
02:37 Followed by Binalong Knight.
02:38 But it's Skinny Dip clear.
02:39 They're not going to catch Skinny Dip who's going to win very comfortably.
02:42 Skinny Dip by about eight over Ken Lee.
02:44 And flashing through Vin Number from Just A Bit Sweet.
02:47 Further back on the field as they went across the line was Likeable Rogue.
02:51 Sporty Banyula in that bunch as well.
02:53 And then we had next on the inside is Binalong Knight in that bunch with also Sassy.
02:58 And then came no more promises towards the back also Dallas Charlie.
03:02 27.5 a real set speed.
