The Quezette Stakes (1100m) has gone the way of $34 chance Bound For Home, with jockey Declan Bates giving the Archie Alexander-trained filly a perfect ride in the Caulfield feature.

Although going into the race with a win and a second to her name from two career starts, punters didn’t want to be with the Rubick filly.

Positioned awkwardly on the fence from barrier three, Bates needed some luck in running, but when the run came in the straight his mount shot through and then fended off the challenge from the Group 2-placed Ojai.

There were a number of unlucky fillies in the $200,000 event, with fancied runners Waltz On By and I’mlovin’ya (3rd) both having hampered runs in transit.
