Recap by phillip woo
Wishful Thinker finished strongly when gaining a clear run 150m out travelling second last following a sluggish break to run down California Fortune in the final few strides for a third win from his past three starts. He's smart but needs to find a couple lengths to challenge the top sprinters. Punted late California Fortune wouldn't go down without a fight after reclaiming the lead from Sea Jade 450m out. He's quite effective over the 1,200m at either track. Favourite Gunnison stayed on a close third following a one-off run fore of midfield. He's running very well on both surfaces. Super Turbo finished well after being held up early straight sitting last to fill a Quartet spot. He's always a chance over this Valley trip. Old-timer Almababy ran on steadily sitting one-off beyond midfield. He's given a good sight in each of his five course-and-distance runs this term but has limited upside. Born In China left things much too late travelling second from the back.
