Recap by phillip woo
Volcanic Spark travelled midfield on the rails and had to come off heels for a clear run 150m out but got up late for a third career win and first from eight starts this term. Vermilion Tempest found one just too good after poking his head in front 100m out following a handy run one off with cover from gate four. It was clearly his best effort. Whacked to jump favourite, Mr Cool was third after briefly leading 50m out despite getting badly baulked and having to alter course near the 300m following a prominent run on the fence. It was another honest performance with a step up to 1,800m. Extreme outsider Grand Turbo came on strongly near the inside for fourth after making his run at the rear from gate 14. He was suited by both the wet track and step up to 1,800m after three lifeless efforts to start his Hong Kong career.
