Recap by phillip woo

Legion Of Merit kept finding after slipping four lengths clear upon straightening leading from gate three for a fourth win and first this season from 10 starts this term. Romantic Fantasy ran on nicely for second after a prominent run on the fence. He's a proven stayer and took full advantage of gate one. In an improved effort, Escape Route stayed on better for second after a pace-stalking run from gate 14. He appreciated the wet going. Darci Joy was eating into the ground late after making his run five back and one off the fence. He rarely produces a bad run over the 2,000m. Special Hedge whacked on one paced after a handy run. It was a better effort on his latest form. Invincible Missile made some ground late after making his run four from the rear. Post-time favourite Sharpen Bright got going late without threatening from behind midfield. He did not appear to enjoy the wet ground. Early favourite Reach Goal never landed a blow after making his run from midfield on the fence following a stable transfer. Like the latter, he appeared to struggle on the yielding ground.
