Recap by phillip woo

The well-backed Capital Legend never went around a horse to come from last at the top of the straight to take control 50m out for a third win and second over the Valley 1,650m from 27 starts. Harmony Galaxy stayed on a close second after a prominent run on the fence. It was his best run to date at his first go over the Valley 1,650m. Punted late, Highland Rahy grudgingly gave way after dictating the pace from gate five. He's close to a win. Ninja Derby just lost third after working forward three wide without cover to chase a genuine pace without cover as the favourite. He has given a decent sight in back-toback runs at this level following a Class Five win. Turin Warrior just held his ground after settling one off the rail in better than midfield. It was a better effort at his second outing this term. Strongest Boy did let down as expected after settling one off the rail behind midfield. He couldn't back up a closing third last start over this course and distance. Sixth Generation only plodded when asked for an effort after a rail run in midfield. He will likely need to drop further in the handicap.
