Recap by phillip woo

Firming favourite Red Elegance drew clear after hitting the front near the 200m following a prominent run for a smart debut win. He lived up to his trials and will be winning more races. Lucky Encounter stayed on nicely for second without menacing the winner after a handy run on the far side. It was a solid debut performance and he will reward connections shortly with a win. Punted late Multisuper stayed on nicely from midfield near the far side for a placing. He's a winner waiting to happen with placings in three of four starts. Turbo Power had his chance travelling better than midfield on the stands side. It was another honest performance but he may require a downgrade to find the winner's circle. Circuit Seven made ground late after switching to the far side for a clear run 350m out travelling near the back following a slow start. He tends to mix his form. Sparkling Dolphin had nothing left to offer 100m out following a speed chasing run.
