Impressive performances from all competitors led to a competitive jump-off featuring 18 starters. Ultimately, Sarah Jo Cumberland clinched the victory aboard her own Melbourne Sum Lass For One Lass, posting the only sub-40-second time of the round. Racing through the jump-off, they crossed the finish line in 38.06 seconds, a remarkable 3.75 seconds ahead of the next fastest time set by Remy Wilson Barnes and Roundthorn Morpheus.
