Sportingbet R Sangster Classic (G1)

Age: 3yo and up Sex: FM Type: OPEN

A most-deserved Group One victory to Driefontein who showed blistering pace to cross and lead clearly. She stretched the field out over plenty of ground and had most of her rivals off the bit on turning for home. She kept giving her all the whole way to the line and was simply too good. Last years winner Platelet was good in defeat. She came from seventh between runners about eight lengths from the leader. She was left with a lot to do in the straight and finished on impressively to pick up Gregers in the closing stages of the race for second. A good effort. Gregers tracked the leader every step of the way. She tired a little late on to hold third. Villa Verde raced in fourth position, three wide facing the breeze. She had every chance in the straight and battled on well for fourth. Shamal Wind finished on from well back in the field for fifth. *ANZ
