Recap by phillip woo

Firming favourite En Pointe took control below the 250m after a one-off run behind midfield to open his win account after two promising 1,200m effort. He relished the rise in distance and clearly has more wins to come. Cheerful Leader overhauled newcomer Star Contact in deep stretch for second after a wide with cover trip in midfield. He proved a last-start second was not a fluke. Star Contact wouldn't go down without a fight after stalking the leader Circuit Elite one off the fence. He clearly has further room for improvement. G-One Excellent kept on reasonably well to fill the frame after handing up the lead to travelling box-seat. It was clearly his best effort. Punted late Dragon Baby was held up for most the straight after a rails run in midfield. He should have finished closer and may be close in on a rating bottom. Flying Sword came up one-paced over the final 200m after getting buffeted about near the 300m following a one-off run better than midfield. He's likely on or near his mark. Joyful Genius made only a mild bid after making his run five back and three deep with cover. Win Win ran on without menacing from the rear of the field. He's trying to find his mark despite a drop in class.
