Lady Lakshmi is a class act judged by the manner in which she put the field away in winning the Ken Cox Handicap at Flemington.

She could have another run before going for a let up with the Thousand Guineas the prime target, on the middle day of Caulfield Cup carnival.

The 1600 metres should not be a concern; she finishes her races off well as was shown in her two Flemington wins, to be a serious threat in any three year old race selected for her.

She was never going to be beaten in the in the Ken Cox Handicap, she was in the box seat for most of the trip behind the leader, Bring Back.

After taking over the lead at the top of the straight she was not going to surrender it, she went strongly to the line.

Daniel Stackhouse proved a worthy substitute for Dwayne Dunn; it will be interesting to see who rides her next time she steps out.

Outside of the winner the best run in the race was turned in by Resistant, he got a fair way out of his ground; he was seen to be running on well.

The Yowie didn’t do much; he got a long way out his ground and failed to run on.

Lady Lakshmi improving with each run
