Think About It extended his immaculate winning record at Royal Randwick on Saturday and charged into outright favouritism for the upcoming $20M TAB Everest after his strong return in the Group 2 Premiere Stakes (1200m).

The race was run at a slow tempo, and the gelding stalked the speed, and jockey Regan Bayliss patiently waited for a gap to appear in the straight.

Further, he immediately showed a sharp turn of foot once clear and put the race away between the 400m-200m with Punter's Intelligence recording he ran 10.89 for that section.

The Joe Pride galloper showed his customary fight when challenged over the concluding stages to hold off the fast-finishing Hawaii Five Oh.

Think About It will need to improve again to win the upcoming feature race, but all key indicators suggest he will, and he has the key attributes of acceleration/adaptability.

Hawaii Five Oh was outstanding in defeat and immediately earned himself a slot in the Everest.

The four-year-old wasn't suited to the race shape, had the track pattern against and made a long sustained sprint.

The clock backed up his visual late strength with him clocking the meeting's second fastest final 200m sectional in 11.36.

He is now at optimal fitness and will excel in a high-pressure 1200m event next start.

Bella Nipotina was honest and tried hard into third.

We got to see the new season two-year-olds for the first time, and Manaal saluted in the Gimcrack Stakes (1000m) after a perfect ride from Tommy Berry.

The filly was slightly outpaced up-tempo, but once she got her mind on the job and asked for a superior effort, she lifted over the final furlong. She clocked the race's fastest final furlong in 11.91.

Celestial Bling arguably should've won after being held up at a vital stage in the straight.

Moreover, her momentum was haltered, but she picked up well and hit the line running 12.00 for her final 200m.

Lady Of Camelot was brave in defeat and will only improve with race experience.

She was three-wide out on a limb the entire trip and travelled an extra 2.2m than the eventual winner.

To her credit, even after her run in transit, she reeled off the race's quickest 400m-200m split in 10.98 before tiring late

Repose was wayward but still clocked the race's fastest final 600m in 33.93.

Note: No sectionals for the Breeders' Plate.

A quick look at the TAB Epsom (1600m), which was run at a farcical tempo with the first 1000m being clocked in 1:00.12, approximately 8.5 lengths slower than the Listed Dulcify Stakes (1600m) and 10 lengths inferior to the Group 1 Flight Stakes (1600m) for that section.

Victor Rediener had every chance and held off the late charge of his stablemate Kovalica, who was an eye-catching performance.

Kovalica was one of the day's runs after having the pace/bias against him, and he reeled off the meeting's fastest final 600m in 32.95. Follow him.

The Inevitable had no luck whatsoever and had genuine excuses throughout.

He got shuffled back at a critical stage and was checked/blocked for most of the straight. However, once clear, he savaged the line and ran the equal fourth fastest final 200m of the meeting in 11.42.

Fastest last 600m: Kovalica 32.95
