Recap by phillip woo

Drifting out sharply in betting, Dancing Classics settled prominent in the run and got up 60m out to record back-to-back wins following a move to blinkers. He should remain in the grade and can win another. Red Elegance ran on nicely for second travelling better than midfield from gate four. He was a well-rated runner on the back of three previous wins over the Valley 1,000m. Thumped to jump favourite, Love Together came from near last and widest out to finish a close third. It was a solid effort carrying top weight after a last start win over the straight 1,000m. Horsepower ran on well near the inside to just miss a placing after a rails run from behind midfield. He rarely produces a bad run over the Valley 1,000m. Early favourite Bunta Baby was doing his best work late for fifth after biding his time third last from gate seven. He should come on for the run. Speedy Parents’ Love just held his ground to hold down sixth prize money after deciding to sit handy in the run from gate one. Specked late Casa Of Honor was yielding ground over the last 100m after sitting near the speed from gate nine.
