Formality followed her game first-up win in the Silver Shadow Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) here on 19 August with another narrow but very smart Group Two success here. She was smartly away and settled nicely outside the leader (Joyfilly Ours) at a steady early pace (first 600m in 36.23). She got to the front at the 300m and then fought back gamely to score in a photo. Champagne Cuddles settled at the tail of the sevenhorse field, fanned deep on straightening and then sprinted quickly. She challenged at the 100m and kept running on strongly to just miss in a photo, staging a very smart effort. I Am Excited was fourth (one out and one back), moved up at the 200m and then kept battling strongly for a close-up third. Alizee had a good trip third place on the rails, pushed into clear running at the home turn, challenged at the 200m and kept fighting well for (0.5 lengths) fourth, albeit after appearing to have every chance.
