Recap by phillip woo
Rattan got up in the shadows of the post after jumping sharper in blinkers to occupy a spot in the box-seat near the 600m to upset the favourites. He's always been a smart performer and was able to raise his game to win a Group Two here. Beat The Clock found one better on this occasion after briefly hitting the front 50m out chasing the leader and favourite Mr Stunning from the 650m. He lost nothing in defeat and remains one of the top sprinters in town. Mr Stunning grudgingly gave way as the surprise leader after the race rabbit Handsome Bo Bo missed the kick. He's more effective ridden off the pace. Pingwu Spark stayed on a distant fourth following a handy run. He's not good enough at this level. Winner's Way never came on from the rear. He looked tired. Class Three horse Handsome Bo Bo wasn't expected to figure and had no chance after botching the start.
