Recap by phillip woo
Dashing Maurison made his own luck in front from gate nine and was much too smart for a first win at his 11th start. The wet track and return to the Valley worked the oracle at his second start down in Class Five. Splendid Force ran on nicely near the inside for second after a rails run from behind midfield. It was a career-best effort following a downgrade. Family Fortune came from last and with one wider out to just snatch third. It was another good effort carrying 3lb more with a step up to 1,800m following a win. Favourite Perfect Pairing just failed to get up for third along the inside after a patient ride third last from gate five. He has performed well each time on a wet track. Kasa Papa just missed a top four spot with a move through the centre after getting posted three wide until slotting one off travelling behind midfield 1,500m out from gate 10. Island Golden made some ground late with two wider out after making his run second last from gate four. Happy Buddies was yielding ground over the final 100m after rushing forward three wide to eventually sit outside the leader 1,000m out from gate 12.
