Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Joyful Genius sustained a move widest out 600m out travelling fourth last to win going away 130m out for a first win at his 18th start. The race was run to suit the swoopers but he was an overdue winner after eight previous placings in Class Four. Brave Power dashed well from near last to grab second in deep stretch. It was a return to form with Hugh Bowman replacing an apprentice. Jiangxi Stamina ran on reasonably well after making his run five back and one off the fence. He should get away with a race shortly if he remains in the grade. Embarked came from towards the rear to spice up the quartet. It was his best run to date from 14 starts at his second start in Class Five. Apex Top had his chance after briefly hitting the lead 150m out following a box-seat run. He is close to a rating bottom. Give Way Please ran on without menacing from behind midfield. He's shown some progress in his past two starts. Shenron weakened 100m out after prompting the pace from a wide draw. He's better suited over a shorter trip.

Also from the outside barrier, TUNG HAYE HAYE was steadied on jumping to obtain cover.

After being ridden along for some distance in the early stages, GIVE WAY PLEASE got its head up when awkwardly placed behind SHENRON passing the 1200 Metres.

After this, GIVE WAY PLEASE travelled keenly and again got its head up on a number of occasions approaching the 1100 Metres when being steadied to obtain cover.

Near the 850 Metres, SEA MONARCH was steadied away from the heels of HANDSOME VEGGIE (Apprentice Y L Chung) which shifted in when not properly clear.
