Recap by phillip woo
Classic Unicorn rushed forward three deep from a wide gate to lead 550m out, straightened two lengths on top and kept up a strong gallop for a nice win. He's won four of eight starts and has the tools to win again in this grade. Gunnison quickened nicely along the inside to just get second at massive odds following a rails run behind midfield for his new trainer. He's well rated and had run well over this course in the past. The usually onedimensional speedball Multimillion finished off well after sitting on the back of the speed without cover to make it close on the wire for second. He had placed in one of two previous runs over this Valley trip. Favourite Highland Fortune ran on steadily following a one-off run better than midfield to fill the frame. The 1,000m was too sharp. Larson only plodded over the final 150m after pressing the pace on the fence. Hong Kong Win ran on when the race was all but over after settling third last from a wide gate.
