Recap by phillip woo
Punted late Majestic Delight settled handy one off the fence, moved to the lead 30m out and just held off the late surge of Autumn Vibes by a lip for a second win this season. The consistent four-year-old relished a step up to 1,200m after running on nicely for fourth last start when over 1,000m. Well-backed Autumn Vibes ran on nicely down the outside to make it a photo finish on the wire after a one-off trip from behind midfield. He appreciated a return to the Valley for his second start in Class Five. Specked late Sonic Boom found a couple just too good after leading 300m out following a speed-tracking run from gate eight. It was a return to form on recent runs. Runjeet stayed on for fourth after a prominent run on the fence from gate one. It was a much-improved effort for his new trainer. Favourite Always My Folks only just failed to make the frame after a rails run from midfield following a tardy start. He couldn't lift carrying 5lb more over a further trip following a win. Chill Master ran on late near the outside without menacing after making his run two from the rear. Lakeshore Hero was doing his best work late.
