Recap by phillip woo
Happy Gathering responded well near the inside to take control 100m out after getting a lovely run in the box seat. The win was overdue after placing in three of his past four starts and was getting 16 pounds from the runner-up. Sensationally backed to jump favourite Trader led and turned the final bend nearly two lengths on top but found one better on the night. He goes well for jockey Zac Purton. Cordyceps One ran on steadily along the inside to spice up the tierce after being ridden along to hold a position behind midfield on the fence. It was clearly his best run to date. Happily Friends had his chance following a one-out, one-back run but kept on one-paced. He's found things a bit harder in back-to-back runs. Happy Time ran on all right after getting posted deep behind midfield after jumping awkwardly. It was a better effort at his second Valley start after opening the campaign with a win and third at Sha Tin. Amigos Giggle didn't have much left in the straight after getting caught without cover ahead of midfield from a tricky gate. He had an excuse. New Future never got involved after showing no speed early on. He needed the run and is better suited over a longer trip.
