Kisses jumped fairly and was allowed to settle before moving up to fourth, down the back straight. Before the home straight she found room and got off the rails in behind the leaders. With a huge gap, she accelerated, three off the inside and lodged her challenge to favourite Recite, who fought for a few strides but was not able to withstand Kisses’ finish, for a nice win.

Recite put herself in the race at the 1000m by camping outside the two leaders around the corner and into the straight, where she edged up to lead and looked to clear out. She maintained a solid gallop and gave the winner some fight but could not pull out any more, holding second comfortably.

Miss Foxwood was wide around the turn and upon straightening, tried to get alongside the leaders but was no match, fighting on fairly for third.

Rich Hill Stud Breeders Stakes (G3)

Sex: FM Type: OPEN

The G3 feature for fillies and mares was won fair and square by Kisses in 1:23.96 for the 1400m. The time was surprisingly a length inferior to the last winner of the day in a Ratings 85 but that is more likely an indication that the victor Platinum Witness is the real deal this season. Kisses had a good trip between runners to the home turn and it was important all day to be in the first half dozen the way that the track raced. She surged to take the front at the 100m narrowly over the hotpot and was too good. It was the sixth win in twenty-six starts for the now 6yo mare and her first Group win with a G2 placing and a couple of G3 placings plus two Listed wins and a placing already in her record. Recite the hotpot ran a brave second considering she was tardy and trapped wide plus got galloped on in the running. She hit the lead at the 200m and should have gone clear regardless but the winner is better than give credit for it. Miss Foxwood ran a brave third after being wide throughout and looming up fourth and deeper turning for home. Just A Lover disputed the pace mostly and fought well for fourth considering she was wide for a large portion of the race. Bonniegirl caught the eye late after being back and wide plus it showed she could cope against her sex at Group level this season. Te Hana ran on late from the back and needs a roomier trace while the rest were separated by a length and a half in total so bunched across the line. The winner Kisses was too good and she almost won a G2 against all comers last season when beaten by a since G1 winner so her form and record was super. Recite has been beaten more than once as a clear favourite but safely through this she should tackle the males too at G1 under WFA. She is best when percolating behind the pace with a dream sit then can be detonated so the start and draw is paramount for the 5yo mare that tellingly has only won once as a 4yo and older mare. Miss Foxwood still has more blacktype to gather and the 4yo pair of Just A Lover and in particular Bonnie Girl should have bigger things in store.
