Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Silver Spurs led and kept on gamely despite getting hampered late by the riderless Spicy So Smart for a first win at his 11th start. He was a well-placed runner down in Class Five, but it was a good training feat to get him right following a pastern injury. Golden Friendship made it close on the wire despite getting impeded by the riderless horse 150m out following a speed-tracking run. He was suited by the downgrade. Camp Fire just held on for third after a box-seat run. He's given a decent sight in both Valley 1,000m starts. Noble Deluxe just failed to place after a prominent run one off the fence. He's building towards a win on his two starts this term. Punted late Triumphant Warrior ran on steadily for fifth after a rails run from midfield. He's better suited over a longer sprint. Cosmo Navigator just held his ground after a one-off trip from midfield. Modest Gentleman ran on without threatening after making his run towards the rear from gate 11. Spicy So Smart lost his rider after blundering at the jump. Happy Horse was withdrawn by order of the stewards on veterinary advice.
