Recap by phillip woo

Firming favourite Audacity responded well to get up 60m out for a first win at his 12th start following a nice trip travelling fore of midfield and one off the fence. He has come right in his past two starts following a step up in distance at the Valley and he might be able to win another in the grade. Telephatia closed off nicely after a patient ride third from the rear to grab second close to home. He's honest without winning over the 1,800m to 2,200m at either course in this class. Medic Swordsman stayed on well near the inside following a midfield run to fill a placing. He's near a bottom. Always Wongchoy was coming on late from the back but peaked on his run 100m out. He appears from his past couple to have turned the corner but prefer over a shorter trip. My Folks took off 500m out after settling with cover beyond midfield but came up flat 150m out. He didn't get the trip and appears to go a shade better at Sha Tin. Storm Kid kept on all right after being held up early straight following a box-seat run. He's actually made progress following a stable change and might be able to earn a cheque soon for connections.
