Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Rising Force showed terrific gate speed to lead from gate seven and comfortably made all for a second win and two seconds from four course and distance runs this term. He has the tools to head higher. Geneva finished very well to overhaul Happy Index for second after a patient ride fourth last from gate eight. He was able to build on a closing third last start at his first run back following an injury-induced break. Happy Index kept on well for third after working hard to track the eventual winner carrying top weight from gate 11. It was a good run in defeat. Jubilant Winner stayed on for fourth after a handy run one off the fence. He didn't disgrace carrying 7lb more following a win. Red Maestro was doing his best work late near the outside to just get the head down for fifth after a one-off trip from midfield. It was an encouraging run.
