Recap by phillip woo

Beauty Only closed furiously after making his run fourth from the rear and three deep from a wide gate to run them down 100m out to stamp himself as the top miler in Hong Kong. Helene Paragon finished strongly after travelling fifth from the rear to make it interesting near the wire. He'll be a key nemesis to Beauty Only in the years to come up to 1,800m. Joyful Trinity found a couple too smart after nearly poking his head in front 150m out following a one-off run travelling behind midfield. He still has a few points in hand. Contentment ran well following a prominent run but found a few younger lads too smart. Logotype plugged on well after behind held up in the box-seat until the 200m to just miss the placings. Favourite Able Friend ran on well after travelling second from the rear from the widest gate. It was a good run in defeat despite an unfavourable preparation following an injury. He's not one to write off when he next steps out. Satono Aladdin made up heaps of ground after trailing the field until the 350m.

From the outside barriers, BEAUTY ONLY and ABLE FRIEND were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

After the 1100 Metres, ROMANTIC TOUCH was left racing wide and without cover.

Passing the 650 Metres, HELENE PARAGON and BEAUTY ONLY raced tight.

HELENE PARAGON had difficulty obtaining clear running in the early part of the Straight.

LOGOTYPE was also held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight.

Passing the 200 Metres, PACKING PINS, which was giving ground, was steadied when crowded for room between GIANT TREASURE which shifted out marginally and COUGAR MOUNTAIN (D O??Brien) which shifted in.

D O??Brien was advised to exercise more care in similar circumstances.

A veterinary inspection of SUN JEWELLERY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

ABLE FRIEND, BEAUTY ONLY and HELENE PARAGON were sent for sampling.
