2011 The Galaxy

The wet track was tailor-made for Atomic Force who settled fourth until the turn where he was able to find racing room and take a share of the lead. Jockey Tim Clark asked for extra effort and the gelding kicked clear to eventually win by nearly three lengths over Thankgodyou'rehere and Cardinal Virtue.
