Recap by phillip woo
Devas Twelve repelled a challenge over the final 150m from Dragon Four Seas after going for home on top 250m out for a second win at his ninth start. He is an honest type. Dragon Four Seas stayed on nicely to just miss after a wide without cover trip from midfield. It was an improved effort and he should be winning a race in no time. Satirical Glory ran on nicely along the inside to finish a close third after a rail run from behind midfield. He is always a chance at this level. Chater Gold finished off OK for fourth after getting held up early in the straight following a prominent run along the fence. Mission Voice just plodded over the last 150m after driving to the lead 1,000m out. He couldn't repeat a last start win carrying five pounds more. Class dropper Harmony Galaxy kept on one paced when asked for more after a handy run. Sterling Wongchoy just failed to overhaul Harmony Galaxy for sixth from the rear of the field.
