Recap by phillip woo

After switching off heels for a clear run 200m out while travelling fourth last, Regal Gem surged late to get up by a bob of the heads for a first win at his fifth local start. Punted late, Storming Dragon came up just short with a bold move down the outside after a patient ride second last from gate 11. He has been a terrific money spinner for connections. Victor The Rapid ran on nicely near the outside to finish a close third after a wide trip with cover from behind midfield. It was another solid run up in grade following a win. Thriving Brothers stayed on well for fourth after briefly poking his head in front 100m out following a wide trip without cover from midfield. He was able to perform well up in grade following a win. Kyrus Dragon ran on steadily for fifth after a rails run from behind midfield. He rarely produces a bad Valley 1,200m run. Favourite Dragon Four Seas succumbed late after briefly assuming the lead 150m out following a speed-tracking run from gate eight. He had to work too hard early on and did have top weight. Young Arrow only plodded after a one-off trip from better than midfield.
