Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Shanghai Power led, cornered two lengths on top and kept on gamely in a class-record time to make it back-to-back wins. He lived up to a strong trial and can win again. Chunghwa Jingshen stayed on nicely to finish a clear-cut second tracking the leader from a wide draw. It was a solid effort and he should get away with a race shortly. After Me ran on well after settling handy with cover to grab third at the 100m without menacing the top pair. He was a disappointment last season but is clearly capable of big runs over this course on his past form. Joy Avenue got going late from just worse than midfield and one off the fence to fill the frame. It was a respectable effort first-up but he has found things harder after a win in February. Garlic Hero made noticeable ground late along the inside after saving ground behind midfield. He's still a work in progress and appears to want a longer trip. Farm Bumper held his ground after getting posted four deep without cover at one point chasing the speed from a wide draw. He'll likely come on for this run and will be a force to be reckoned with from a better draw.
