Backing up and dropping sharply in distance after running in the Melbourne Cup, Magic Wand defeated New Zealand mare Melody Belle in the weight-for-age race over 2000m.
It left Hartnell to take the minor placing as the nine-year-old heads into retirement after 58 starts delivered 13 wins and more than $7 million in earnings.
