Recap by phillip woo
Early favourite Easy Touch pulled out at the 320m following a box-seat run and took control 200m out for a second win at this level this term. He didn't beat much and will have to lift on his past Class Three form when next stepping out but this outing shows he doesn't have to lead outright to run a big race. Richcity Fortune kept on a clear-cut second after enjoying an uncontested lead. He's nothing special and couldn't have gotten an easier time up front. Young Empire improved 700m out after going back from a wide gate and kept up a good gallop to fill a placing. He's showing life signs in recent runs and may be bottoming out soon. Sakura Fighter made a steady bid near the inside following a rails run in midfield to grab fourth ahead of another debutant Such A Happiness who finished nicely down the outside after settling at the rear of the field. Both will gain valuable experience from this run and prefer longer trips in time. Clever Spirit ran on late after missing the kick. He had excuses but isn't genuine. Fancied late to jump favourite Sharpmind found nothing following a prominent run in his maiden start. He had trialled well but raceday is a totally different scenario.
