Recap by phillip woo

Happy Chappy showed gate speed to clear from an inside gate and sit second on the stands side, advanced to the lead 150m out and edged away to get his career off to a bright note. Highland Hammer easily crossed from gate two to lead one off the outside fence, handed up to Super Dragon at the 750m, reclaimed the front 400m out and kept on gamely to the wire to finish a clear second. Raging favourite General Of Patch settled fourth and two off the outside fence after a sluggish break, was forced to the middle of the course by Super Dragon at the 400m and kept grinding away to grab a placing 200m out. He'll come on for the run. Eastern Express made a steady bid without menacing following a handy run after being restless prior to the start. He appears to want a further trip. Classic Emperor made some ground without menacing after settling midfield and two off the stands side. Super Dragon rolled forward near the center of the course to lead 750m out and was wandering about while giving way 400m out. Blazing Pass and the slow-into-stride Lucky Gift were never involved.
