Recap by phillip woo
Flying Noble took control approaching the 200m following a handy run for a maiden win at his 10th start. He was too smart with a class drop. Well-backed late Vara Pearl came on nicely following a midfield run to easily take second. He too was suited by a downgrade and can win shortly if he remains in this grade at either track. Don Wongchoy stayed on well despite a prominent run without cover the entire trip from gate 14 to fill a placing. He's run well to place third in three straight runs now and could pop up at any time. Ambitious Speedy came on well after settling fourth from the rear from a wide gate to fill a Quartet spot. He's pretty honest at this level and will go close to winning shortly from a better draw. Punted late Happy Beauty left things too late travelling third from the rear. Even though he won a start earlier over the 1,400m a step up to a mile may suit him now. Torney found nothing following a one-off run sitting worse than midfield.
