Recap by phillip woo
Smart Patch was the only one to emerge from the back when overhauling Flame Lily 20m out. He might be a Valley specialist after showing nothing in his opening eight starts. Flame Lily was touched off late after rolling forward from a wide gate to lead 1,150m out. He's taken a liking to the Valley in his past two starts. Early favourite Happy Warrior kept on reasonably well for third despite a tough run to land a spot outside the leader from a wide gate. Charity Wings stayed on a non-threatening following fourth following a ground-saving run in midfield. He rarely produces a bad run over this course and distance . Dream Warriors made some ground without menacing following a one-off run in midfield. He's slowly but surely coming around in his four starts. Enjoy Life had no excuse following a dream run. He wasn't able to step up following a rise in weight for a laststart win. Favourite Righteous Mate was given too much to do at the back of the field.
