Recap by phillip woo

Prince Alex just held off Sure Joyful after moving to the lead just under the 200m marker for a first win at his 25th local start. Sure Joyful ran on well for second after a prominent run with cover one off from gate 10. It was another good effort carrying a share of top weight following a recent win. Northern Beast ran on for third without threatening the top two after settling on the rail in better than midfield. It was a return to form at his third outing this term. Wah May Wai Wai gave a better sight for fourth following a tactics change to lead from gate three. To Infinity ran on steadily to finish next best after finding a spot to travel behind midfield on the fence from gate 11. He's produced a decent sight in his past two starts over the Valley 1,650m this term. Early favourite Apolar Fighter was not disgraced but had an excuse after getting posted wide without cover the entire trip from behind midfield. Post-time favourite Galvanic tracked the leader with a seven-pound claimer in the saddle but disappointed in the closing stages after briefly drawing level 250m out.
