Recap by phillip woo

Hammered late in betting, Day Day Victory travelled one off in midfield before switching out for a clear run approaching the final bend and quickening nicely with three wider out to take control 30m out for a first win at his 13 starts. He appreciated a return to the Valley 1,000m of a third in January. Ragnarr finished strongly through the middle to make it close on the wire after making his run fourth last from a tricky gate. He's a winner waiting to happen after filling the frame in his past three runs following a downgrade. Punted late Ace Talent wouldn't go down without a fight after dictating the pace from gate 12. It was a better effort on his past few starts. Patch Of Watch just failed near the outside to grab third after a one-off trip from behind midfield. It was another genuine effort on the back of three solid performances on dirt. Camp Fire came up one-paced after a box-seat run. It was an improved effort with a return to turf after showing little a start earlier on dirt at his first run in Class Five. Favourite Diamond Soars only held his ground ridden midfield on the fence following a sluggish start.
