Recap by phillip woo

In a thriller, early favourite Enreaching out-duelled late-fancied favourite Sure Peace over the final 150m after assuming the front at the 250m following a pace-stalking run to open his win account at start nine. He had put the writing on the wall in two of three prior starts and do expect him to be competitive off a lightweight up in class. Sure Peace made steady progress after being posted four deep with cover behind midfield to make it a lip in the end and a clear-cut second. He's back on track and will be winning short on this surface. Emperor Victory gave a good sight on the speed after working hard to clear for the lead passing the 1,300m in a pleasing dirt debut. The featherweight certainly helped but it opens up options for connections. Travel Ambassador came on nicely very wide out from the rear of the field in a blanket finish for fourth. It builds on some good mile form recently at the Valley but he may be crying out for 1,800m. Thumped late, London City grudgingly gave way following a prominent run along the fence. He's a winner waiting to happen in Class Five. Another dirt debutant Unique Joyous ran on well after a deep run behind midfield in his best run of the term and may be near a bottom.
