Trained by Robert and Luke Price, three year-old filly Diamond Lucy had placed at her two previous starts and was too good in the 1300m maiden, scoring by three quarters of a length over Written By gelding Pennart with more than two lengths back to the third horse.

Diamond Lucy was a $40,000 Inglis Classic purchase from the Widden Stud draft for Glenn and Viva Williams and is the second winner from Love Lucille, a half-sister to Group II winner Scarlet Rain.
