Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Winfull Patrol cornered two lengths on top after leading from gate one and just scraped home from the fast-finishing Glory Horsie for a third win at his 41st start. He'll find it harder in Class Four. Punted late Glory Horsie finished strongly near the inside after settling third from the rear form a wide gate to make it close on the wire. Old-timer hasn't been far off the finish in his past three and on the back of this run could ring one up soon. Whistle Up kept up a good gallop following a prominent run to fill a placing. He didn't have any excuses but hasn't been beaten as far in his past two of four runs this term. Bliss Cartel rallied well after a deep run fore of midfield from a tricky gate. He has trouble winning but rarely runs a bad race sprinting over this course. Fair Comment finished reasonably well near the inside after a patient ride second from the rear in a vastlyimproved effort at his first outing this term.
