Elite Alex had a tough task. The top 3 were second, third, and fourth through the first 3/4s behind a hopeless longshot. Machen was a bit closer than Elite Alex early, but Machen lost more ground around both turns. Machen looked like he was going to run a big race on the far turn, but hit a brick wall at the 1/8th pole.
