Recap by phillip woo
Mighty Commander ran on from midfield to hit the front near the 100m despite rolling un under pressure and skipped clear for a second win and first over 1,200m from 16 starts. He is always a chance in Class Four. Punted late California Blitz stayed on nicely for second after settling in the box seat from gate two. It was not a surprise after ending last season with two pleasing performances. Telecom Power battled away for third after a one-out, one-back run. It was a better effort after disappointing three times following a win. Know At Heart ran on steadily along the inside to just miss a placing after a rails run from behind midfield. He is close to a rating bottom. Amazing Kid produced a mild bid for fifth after settling three back on the fence. It was a positive performance on his seasonal reappearance. Firming favourite Always My Folks was on his tippy toes over the last 100m after emerging the leader from gate one following a sluggish start. He should be one to watch shortly in Class Five. Last-start winner Golden Darci ran on without threatening after making his run one from the rear.
