When questioned regarding the performance of ALLGREEKTOME, Z Purton stated that his mount travelled comfortably in the early and middle stages even when pressured in the middle stages by SAKEWIN.
He said in the early part of the Straight ALLGREEKTOME improved well into the event, but when asked for full effort near the 250 Metres failed to respond and, in his opinion, may not have appreciated tonight's surface.
A veterinary inspection of ALLGREEKTOME immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

Recap by phillip woo
Nordic Dragon cut down Brave Star close to home for his third win from six starts after a patient ride one from the rear. It was a return to form after disappointing in his past three races across both tracks. Brave Star did everything right but get the win after chasing the leading pair one off the fence and surging to the lead 250m out. It was another good effort carrying more weight following his last-start win. Lucky Eight ran on nicely for third after his prominent run on the rail. Like Brave Star, he was carrying more weight following his recent win. Seizing The Moment came from last to dead-heat with Beauty Tycoon for fourth after making his run from the rear of the field. It was a better effort, but he did get a race run to suit. Beauty Tycoon had his chance after his handy run, but again a heavy weight took its toll on him. Elon made a mild bid from midfield. He should be a force with which to be reckoned if he drops into Class Four. Firming favourite Allgreektome was stopping 150m out after getting pestered for the front to his outside by Sakewin. He had an excuse.
