00:00 And we're close with Mr. Bondi on the inside.
00:04 Master Jude catching up off the second row. They're all set. Good luck.
00:08 Tad Mobile goes to release point.
00:11 And the green light is there. They're away.
00:13 So Mr. Bondi, who's the favourite, begins well. Plenty of company.
00:16 Cougar Express alongside Tizzy Lizzy's going up. Makes a line of three.
00:20 Cougar Express is the first one to relinquish it. Goes back into third in the front.
00:24 Two are the top two in the market. Mr. Bondi, Tizzy Lizzy, they go together.
00:28 Early stages here and they get away from Cougar Express running third.
00:32 Then Geoffrey B on the outside. A run here from Tiger Liu who finds itself three deep.
00:37 In behind those and going roughly there is Security Check on the inside.
00:40 So it is galloping. A few will have to scramble to get around it, including Master Jude.
00:45 Also Bo Brown slipped by it. Towards the end of the field is Scotty Mac.
00:50 And I'm Harvey Spector. Not sure I called it in the run through.
00:53 It's back about centre field on the outside as Security Check drop back.
00:57 Lead time 39.1. Towards the back. Security Check look just about out of play.
01:03 It's about 50 metres last and as they go to the far side after completing one lap,
01:07 it's Mr. Bondi, the ex-Kiwi. First run in Australia. Leads out for Blake Jones by four.
01:12 Over Tizzy Lizzy and Jack Painting on the outside running second.
01:15 Cougar Express running third. Geoffrey B the outside fourth.
01:18 Then Master Jude, three back and fifth.
01:21 Then came I'm Harvey Spector, the running line. The last few were Scotty Mac
01:25 in company with Bo Brown in the green colours of the tab.
01:28 And towards the end is Tiger Liu who couldn't get around them.
01:31 Went back is last of the main bunch and Security Check has tailed out.
01:35 First quarter 30.9. Top of the lane. Mr. Bondi leads them here by about three.
01:41 Over Tizzy Lizzy and Cougar Express still running third.
01:44 Then Geoffrey B on the outside fourth. Master Jude, three back on the inside fifth.
01:49 Then came further back I'm Harvey Spector, Scotty Mac, Bo Brown the outside.
01:54 Towards the end Tiger Liu and there's not been any change for a while.
01:57 29.3 for that second quarter and tailed out the back as Security Check.
02:02 So into the far side. 600 metres left to go.
02:05 Mr. Bondi first into the far side. Already Painting getting busy on Tizzy Lizzy the outside.
02:11 Jones looking around. Still seemingly going okay.
02:14 He's looking at a long look over his shoulder here.
02:16 Mr. Bondi extends now. Just clicked up. Starts to get away from out of the pack.
02:21 I'm Harvey Spector runs on Tizzy Lizzy. Not doing much at the moment.
02:24 Cougar Express. Then Master Jude who's now badly held up and Tiger Liu starts the run.
02:29 But Mr. Bondi, 29.6, has taken off towards the turn and looks good here.
02:35 I'm Harvey Spector's looking good for the silver medal.
02:38 Further back Cougar Express and also Tiger Liu but first up in Australia.
02:42 Loving the, loving the, the race here at Leighton and he's going to win easily.
02:47 Mr. Bondi wins it over. I'm Harvey Spector then Tiger Liu at intervals.
02:51 Being followed then by Master Jude, Cougar Express and then Scotty Mac and also Beau Brown.
02:56 Geoffrey Bee. Further back was Tizzy Lizzy who didn't really fire a shot there.
03:00 And Security Check ran in last. So 28.3. Mr. Bondi.
03:05 Bye.
03:05 (laughing)
