Recap by phillip woo
California Joy took control 100m out after being ridden positively from a middle gate to stalk the leader Victory Marvel for a return to the winner's circle after disappointing in his past three starts. Fresh legs following a seven-week break might have brought about the turnaround. Thunder Stomp caught the eye yet again with a ducking-and-weaving run near the inside after a patient ride third from the rear to snatch second from Acclaimed Light despite a muddling pace. He'll be winning shortly over a mile or 1,800m at either course. Acclaimed Light kept on well after a box-seat run for a placing despite a return to Class Three. The switch to the Valley mile three runs back has turned his career around. Victory Marvel was swamped late after enjoying an uncontested lead. He just doesn't know how to run a bad race over the 1,200m or mile at this course. Early favourite Unicorn ran on without menacing after a midfield run in his first Valley start. He appears to have hit his mark in recent runs. Late-fancied favourite Land Grant only plodded after peeling into the open rounding the final bend following a rails run behind midfield. The pace went against him but it was another disappointing effort despite a drop in grade and stable change.
