Recap by phillip woo
Beauty Viva had a perfect trip fourth on the fence before hitting the front 200m out and proving too good for a first win at his 20th local start. He was able to take full advantage of gate one at his maiden start over the Valley 1,650m. Excellent Boy ran on nicely with two wider out for second after making his run just worse than midfield on the fence. It was a much-improved effort at his initial start over the Valley 1,650m. Harmony Galaxy ran on strongly at the end for third after making his run second last from gate 12. He will be looking forward to his favourite 1,800m now. Red Brick Warrior made good ground late through the centre for fourth after making his run fourth last from gate eight. It was a good effort at his first start over the Valley 1,650m. Frantanck gradually faded after dictating the run from gate six. It was his best effort from seven runs across both tracks this term. Fortune Star ran on without threatening from beyond midfield. Super Sicario came up one paced after sitting third in the run. Early favourite Glorious Journey never landed a blow after a one-off trip from midfield. It was an out-of-character run.
