Recap by phillip woo
Free Pony was given a patient ride third last from gate five and zipped home late with two wider out to just get the better of Flying Wrote for a first win at his ninth start. Well-backed Flying Wrote found one just too good after a one-off trip from midfield. It was another fine effort carrying 7lb more following a win and subsequent heart irregularity. Winning Money was touched off late after giving a cheeky sight on the speed from gate six. He's a winner waiting to happen. Prestige Hall ran on well near the inside for fourth without threatening the top three after making his run at the rear following a slow start. It was an eye-catching effort at his first Valley start. Thumped to jump favourite Argento Ocean just plodded after getting all favours in the box seat. He couldn't lift carrying 7lb more following a win but may be looking for a rise in trip now. Savvy Twinkle was next best after a speed tracking run from gate eight. He will be looking forward to a downgrade. Early favourite Sky Cap found nothing after a prominent run. He was having his first run of the campaign.
