Recap by phillip woo

Well-backed Lucky Blessing set the pace from gate three and kept on gamely to just hold off Apolar Fighter for a maiden win at his 13th start. He appreciated the step up to the Valley 1,650m. Apolar Fighter came to win the race 100m out but couldn't get by the winner after a rails run from better than midfield. The 7lb rise in weight following a win last start was the difference in the end. Favourite Draco ran on nicely for third after getting held up for a run until peeling off heels 200m out following a rails trip from behind midfield. He's a winner waiting to happen. Star Brose came from well back and widest out to just take fourth. He has the tools to get away with a race shortly in this grade. Perfect Moments stayed on for fifth after a box-seat run. It was another honest performance this term. Dragon Sunrise made good ground late near the outside to finish on the bottom of a three-horse go for fourth after a patient ride third last from gate nine. He's produced a fair performance in both Valley 1,650m runs this term. Foremost Teddy just held his ground after a one-off trip from midfield.
