Recap by phillip woo
Well-backed late Smiling City came with a bold move near the outside to run down the late-plunged Starlit Knight in the deep stretch for a first win at his 13th start. Starlit Knight served it up to early favourite Focus to assume the lead 450m out following a pace-pressing run, straightened two lengths on top and found one better on the day. Post-time favourite King Dragon stayed on well for a placing after a box-seat run in his Valley debut. He's not far off a winning run. Lucky Missile ran on steadily near the inside from behind midfield to finish a distant fourth. He's made a good impression in back-toback runs with a switch to the Valley 1,650m and might handle the 1,800m as well. Management Star stayed on without menacing following a midfield run on the fence. He likely needed the start following a 140-day break. Oriental Elite came up one-paced after a one-off run in midfield. The move to blinkers failed to spark improvement.
