Recap by phillip woo

Newcomer Lakeshore Eagle did a few things wrong in the run but still got up 40m out for the win after switching outside the tiring leader All Great Friends approaching the 100m. He's still learning and has a bright future. Favourite E Master closed well from behind midfield to grab second in deep stretch. He's racing in good spirts since joining the Caspar Fownes camp. Punted late Dragon Dance wouldn't go down without a fight after hitting the front 100m out chasing the leader from a wide gate despite a return to Class Four. He's improved following a stable change and can salute shortly in this grade. Flying Monkey kept on all right following a box-seat run. He's not genuine. Jolly Bountiful left things too late travelling second last from a wide gate. He'll be a force to be reckoned with from a better draw. Golden Glory only plodded with two wider out upon straightening following a midfield run. He's proving a difficult one to get right in his four starts this term.
