Recap by phillip woo
Happy Surveys settled second from the rear after jumping sluggishly, swung the final bend with one wider out and finished willingly to get up in the final few strides for an impressive debut win. He remains one to follow. King's Steed settled one off in second, rallied four deep and kept plugging away to just grab second in a photo finish. My Legend settled fore of midfield and one off the rails, rounded the final bend five deep and closed off nicely to make it another thriller on the wire. All Times Lucky was given a dream ride on the back of the leader Jolly Posh, straightened near three deep, worked to the front 50m out and was swamped in the shadows of the post. Early favourite Golden Chopsticks settled deep on the track third from the rear from a wide gate, swung the final bend with one wider out and ran on nicely to just finish out of a Quartet spot. Plunged late to jump favourite, Jolly Posh showed superior gate speed to easily lead, cornered a length on top and was giving ground 100m out. Peace On Earth made some ground three deep without menacing after travelling fourth from the rear. City Power disappointed following a rail's run in midfield.
