Only three runners broke 36 seconds for the final 600m at Rosehill on Saturday which saw all nine races run on a heavy 10 track.
Harlem Lady who ran on strongly from back in the field to finish second behind Kellyville Flyer ran the fastest final 600m and 200m of the day (35.34/12.03) after she was slow to begin.
Ravi also showed good dash in the heavy conditions (35.55/12.17) when taking out the 3YO Benchmark 78 (1200m) her fourth win from only seven starts.
The track appears to have given all runners their chance with a mix of leaders and backmarkers all winning races throughout the day.
Below shows the fastest final 600m and 200m splits of the day along with how the winners measures up against the race sectionals.
Horses to blackbook: Ravi, King’s Officer, Grande Punto.
