Recap by phillip woo

Early favourite Smart Union worked to the front 180m following a box-seat run and kept on gamely for a third victory this term under Joao Moreira. Punted late, Super Silks sat outside the leader Beauty Love, straightened four deep and wore that one down passing the 200m for second. Late-fancied favourite Beauty Love led as expected, cornered a half-length on top and found a couple too good in the drive to the wire carrying top weight. Victory Boys closed off reasonably well with two wider out after a one-off run in midfield to fill a Quartet spot. Holmes Legend ran on reasonably well four deep after travelling at the tail of the field. Ambassadorship came up one-paced in the drive following a handy run near the fence. Willie Way made some ground without menacing with one wider out after travelling one off the fence with cover beyond midfield. Super Sweet Orange made a move to get to find a spot with cover in fourth 1,100m out, straightened four deep and was struggling 200m out.

On arrival at the Start, it was noted that SUPER SWEET ORANGE had lost its left hind plate.

This plate was refitted.

SUPER SWEET ORANGE was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said in his opinion it was suitable to race.

BEAUTY LOVE shifted out at the start and bumped FIRST SIGHT LOVE.

HOLMES LEGEND was crowded for room on jumping between DUAL HAPPY which shifted out and SUPER SILKS which shifted in after being bumped by HOLMES LEGEND.

A short distance later, HOLMES LEGEND was checked when further crowded for room inside SUPER SILKS which was taken in by ONE OF A KIND.

After this, despite being ridden along, DUAL HAPPY failed to muster speed.

Passing the 1400 Metres, VICTORY BOYS got its head up on a number of occasions when awkwardly placed behind AMBASSADORSHIP.

Again near the 1150 Metres, VICTORY BOYS got its head up when proving difficult to settle.

WILLIE WAY, which was following , was inconvenienced in consequence.

SUPER SWEET ORANGE travelled wide and without cover until near the 1000 Metres.

Near the 950 Metres, WINNING MASCOT and WILLIE WAY raced tight.

Over about the final 100 Metres, WINNING MASCOT was not tested when unable to obtain clear running inside AMBASSADORSHIP which shifted in marginally under pressure.

Approaching the 50 Metres, FIRST SIGHT LOVE and DUAL HAPPY bumped.

A veterinary inspection of SUPER SWEET ORANGE and ONE OF A KIND immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
