Recap by phillip woo
Well-punted late, My Blessing was headed for the front at the 800m by Amazing Always, reclaimed the lead 250m out and just held off the late surge of Acclaimed Light by a whisker carrying a light weight for a third win from his past five starts despite a return to Class Four. He's in a good patch of form and should remain competitive in the grade. Acclaimed Light came on nicely widest out after travelling fore of midfield to make it close on the wire. He's clearly a winner waiting to happen at this level. Amazing Always grudgingly gave way after taking off from just behind midfield to lead mid-race. It was a good run in defeat but the mile does push his stamina limits. See Me Now had his chance following a prominent run along the fence with a step up to a mile. It was his best run following a surprise win four back over the 1,200m but isn't one to follow with confidence. Favourite Great Joy made some ground late without menacing near the inside following a patient ride third from the rear. He tipped the scale at just under 1,000 pounds so the big weight was always going to be a hurdle and he requires a faster pace.
