00:00As we're just about all in, the green light turned on, Lua's on the roll, first hit of the fireball,
00:06favourite in the two, they're set. And they're away, and Pallawar King flopped out and missed
00:12it by four and a half lengths, but that's nothing new. Exploded is back to second last of the group,
00:17and Pallawar King's nearly caught up to him. Up front it's Make No Promise in front of Lily
00:22Intention and Wild Cash. Bursting through was Passmark, Exploded behind him. Pallawar King's
00:28trying to get on to Exploded's back, but he got chopped out by Lakeview Nola who cut to the fence.
00:32Big Susie was back with it. Pallawar King is last. The leader, Make No Promise, two in front of in
00:39second place in Lily Intention. Now Exploded starts to run on. Trying to run on was Lakeview Nola.
00:45Pallawar King's bursting into the clear, but it might be too late. It's Make No Promise,
00:49coming through was Exploded. Pallawar King! Holy cow, what a win! Pallawar King has done it,
00:58and he beat Exploded on his merits. Lakeview Nola next in was Lily Intention. Passmark from Big Susie
01:05next in the field was further back then to Wild Cash and Lakeview Nola. That was unbelievable.
01:12He was no chance, absolutely no chance, and he still won and goes 43-0-1-4.
01:20What a run! That is out of this world. Exploded had that wrapped up with a nice little bow,
01:28and all of a sudden Pallawar King got back to the rail and has charged through. He got chopped out
01:35so many times in that run, and the last time he got chopped out past the 600, he thought that was it.
01:42But somehow he has got through and he has won. That is one of the most remarkable wins you will
01:50see. Pallawar King has won. It's 8-2-5-3. 8-2-5-3.
