Recap by phillip woo
Nine-year-old Healthy Happy led and lifted to reclaim the lead 150m out after briefly getting headed by Steps Ahead to cause an upset win. It was his sixth win and fourth over 1,400m from 44 starts. Steps Ahead found one just too good after poking his head in front 300m out following a one-off trip from better than midfield. It was another honest performance. Hong Lok Golf got going late to take third travelling one off with cover from behind midfield. It was a good effort carrying top weight. Chiu Chow Spirit came from last and widest out to just miss a placing. He's as honest as the day is long over this course and distance. Huge Wave lost a placing late after taking off from near the rear 700m out to nearly draw level for the lead 300m out. It was an OK effort up in a higher class. Punted late Gustosisimo only plodded after sitting on the winner's back. He appeared to need the outing. Mickley ran on without threatening from near the rear.
