Recap by phillip woo
Firming as the second favourite, Western Express let down brilliantly to come from last to take control 60m out for a second win from five starts and ring up win number 500 for jockey Joao Moreira. He looks a smart 1,400m and 1,600m performer. California Whip cruised to the front 280m out after a box-seat run and found one too smart on the day. He was giving the winner five pounds and will be back in the winner's circle in no time. Jolly Jolly closed off well to snatch third, albeit a distant one, following a patient ride third from the rear. He appreciated the weight off his back with a step up in class but needs to strike easier opposition. Healthy Joyful just failed to get up for a placing when short of room early straight following a handy run. He continues to run well following a rise in grade after a Class Three win but like Jolly Jolly needs to find a softer test. New Asia Sunrise just failed to place after covering ground the entire trip following a prominent run. He doesn't know how to run a bad race. Midnight Rattler made some ground following a midfield run but he appears to sprint harder over the 1,200m.
