Recap by phillip woo
Villa Fionn held Viva Popcorn at bay over the last 100m for the win after hitting the front 150m out following a perfect run better than midfield on the fence. He was knocking on the door and took full advantage of gate one. Viva Popcorn ran on strongly near the inside to make it close on the wire. He's close to adding to an earlier win in Class Five. Jolly Honour let down well to get up for third 100m out after making his run four back on the fence. He's always a chance over this course and distance. Chater Pins closed nicely from the rear of the field to fill the frame. He keeps promising but has yet to even deliver a placing in his 17 starts. Punted late Viva Hunter gradually faded after rolling forward to sit one off the leader Faithful Trinity from a wide draw. It wasn't a bad effort carrying top weight following a win. Faithful Trinity was giving way in the run to the wire after dictating the run from gate seven. He's not easy to get right. Total Power ran on without menacing travelling one from the rear. He ran below expectations but his rider Jerry Chau Chun-lok is going through a dry spell. Favourite Dr Winning never let down after a oneoff trip behind midfield. It was a disappointing run following a last-start win.
