Recap by phillip woo
Werther copped a check 550m out after pulling hard following a prominent but was able to pick himself up and run down Blazing Speed in the last stride to remain unbeaten in three Group Ones over this Sha Tin trip. He'll be hard to beat when next stepping out in the likely QE II Cup. Blazing Speed assumed the lead 250m out following a pace-stalking run and wouldn't go down without a fight. He's getting long in the tooth but is still capable of big races. Secret Weapon finished well near the inside after getting shuffled back to near last to get up for a placing. He remains one to keep safe when returning over the 1,800m or 2,000m. Basic Trilogy was on his tippy toes 150m out after getting his own time up front. He's not good enough at set weights in this company but will be winning shortly a handicap race over 1,800m or 2,000m. Punted late Beauty Only never was never dangerous after travelling third from the rear. The race conditions went against him and he's better at a mile. Designs On Rome's move from the 800m was short lived. Like Beauty Only, he needs a fast ground and pace. Flame Hero went amiss 700m out.
