Recap by phillip woo
Late-fancied Samarkand travelled prominently, worked to the lead 50m out and held off post-time favourite Happy Angel to post his second win in a row despite rising in weight and distance. Happy Angel tracked the speed from gate four and made it close on the wire. He is always a chance over Happy Valley's 1,800m. Forever Glorious grudgingly gave way after clearing to the lead from his tricky barrier 1,400m out. He is yet to salute this season but has run well to fill the frame in three of his four starts. Pegasus General stayed on reasonably well after getting all the favours on the leader's back. His big weight was the difference in the end. Palace Pal ran on steadily without threatening the top four after his midfield trip one off the fence. It was another honest effort. Serangoon made some headway late near the outside after his rail run behind midfield. It was a shade better effort fourth up this term on his switch to Happy Valley and rise in distance. Running Ahead held his ground after his run on fence just worse than midfield. Early favourite Splendid Star had an excuse after getting posted wide without cover.
