Recap by phillip woo
Following a rails run from midfield, the well-backed Ping Hai Comet was too smart after rushing to the lead 350m out for back-to-back wins. He was able to back up a win last start over the Valley 2,200m. Favourite Etalon Or ran on well for second but was no match for the winner after a one-off trip from behind midfield. He is as honest as the day is long but just cannot win. Punted late Pearl Of Pang's just got the bob down for third after switching off the tiring Matsu Victor 200m out following a box-seat run. He had no issues with a step up to 1,600m. Happy Universe just lost third after a wide without cover trip from midfield. He can bob up at any moment after filling the frame in three of his past four starts. Brave Witness made ground late to just win a three-way battle for fifth after making his run five back and one off the fence. Bright Inheritance came from near last and widest out to just get the head down for sixth prize money. It was an okay effort, but he's likely on his mark following a win two runs ago.
