Recap by phillip woo
Country Melody finished strongly one off the stands side from behind midfield to get up by a whisker over E-Super for a third course and distance win this term. E-Super settled three off the grandstand side in third from a low berth, worked to the front 120m out and was nipped on the wire. Triumphant Jewel just held off Accepted for third after being hard ridden from a difficult gate to hold a position underneath E-Super in the run. Accepted ran on well after making his run ahead of midfield on the far side from a tough gate. He's caught the eye in both 1,000m runs and will be winning soon. Chater Rock settled fore of midfield one off the outside fence, switched into the open near the center of the course at the 200m and stayed on reasonably well thereafter. Sky Man only held his ground after a prominent run on the stands side.
