Recap by phillip woo
Tactical Command got up to just deny Honest Witness after a rails run from midfield for a third win from 15 starts this term. Favourite Honest Witness found one just too good after poking his head on top 200m out following a speed-tracking run on the fence. He's a winner waiting to happen with placings in back-to-back Valley runs from five starts. Grand Nova kept on gamely to finish a close third after sitting third near the inside. It was a solid effort at his first start over the Valley 1,200m. King Eccellente stayed on a non-threatening fourth after a one-off trip from midfield. It was another honest effort. Punted late, Bits Superstar whacked on next best after pushing wide 450m out following a prominent run wide without cover from gate seven. He's gone OK in both starts following a win in May. Golden Friendship was on his tippy toes 100m out after rolling forward to lead 900m out from gate eight. Favourite Dancing Classics ran on without threatening after making his run two from the rear. The switch to the Valley backfired after a win and a troubled 13th from two starts.
