Recap by phillip woo
Firming favourite Happy Time edged clear at the 250m after being ridden as the best horse outside the leader Speedy Luck for a first win at his 15th start. He had put the writing on the wall last month in his first Class Four start. Shouson ran on well fore of midfield to grab second. He has shown progress this season. Newcomer Methane came on well from midfield to add some value to the exotics. It was good effort and he's one to keep safe going forward. Split Of A Second got going late near the outside to fill the frame after a patient ride fourth from the rear. He'll be finding a bottom shortly in this grade. Shamport kept on one-paced when asked for an effort over the final 150m following a prominent run on the fence. Dor Dor left things too late travelling third from the rear. He needed the outing and clearly wants a longer trip. General Trump made some ground without menacing from the rear of the field. Like the latter, the trip was too short.
