The PROJECT MATTER Stakes
Apologies to all on missing the track call here at QLD over the last 10 days. Have had an interesting week to say the least workwise and there was no possible way I was going to get the calls in. No excuse but apologies all the same.
In the Project Matter Stakes this week at QLD track, Kiss or Kill failed to make it three in a row by only a head. Running in 2nd place for most of the race she was ever so slowly pulling the winner in Blackeyed Peace back. However, Blackeyed Peace ended up getting a good solid win leading from the jump to the finish in which the trainer was ecstatic about in his post race comments on the podium. With a SP of 97 she dominated the field early on and was able to hold out to the end by a head. Good solid win all round girl. Kiss or Kill was unlucky to not have finished across the line first but had to be content with the 2nd place finish. Still by no means a disaster for her, and her speed was up to an SP of 96 which is encouraging for trainer biznes. Well done to both of these two champions here today. The rest of the field (and that’s only 3 with a small field of 5 at QLD today) in Fusaichi Inferno, Extremeless and Madre Teddy were never really going to push the top 2. Some 5 lengths behind was the closest in Fusaichi Inferno with Extremeless 2 lengths behind her and Madre Teddy bringing up the rear. Lets hope we get a bigger field next week and a close race like we saw today with Blackeyed Peace running out the winner here.
