The inaugural $7.5m Golden Eagle^[2] was won by the Chris Waller trained Kolding underneath in-form hoop Glen Boss.

Kolding, a last-start winner of the Epsom Handicap, he was sent out as an equal second-favourite at $6 and he confirmed his status as an elite galloper with an authoritative win over a gallant Sunlight, with Mizzy narrowly holding on for third over Behemoth.

Race favourite Arcadia Queen ($3.30) had her chance but couldn't match motors with the winner, finishing fifth in the 16-horse field.

Last place went the way of Gem Song ($61) who finished 47L in arrears of the winner.^[5]
