Recap by phillip woo
Punted late Notthesillyone had a prominent run on the fence and got the better of Ace Talent 50m out for a maiden win at his 10th start. He took advantage of gate two after failing in his last three runs from outside draws at this level. Favourite Ace Talent found one just too good after dictating the run from gate three. He's as honest as the day is long over the Valley 1,000m. Modest Gentlemen ran on strongly along the inside for third after making his run at the rear from gate nine. He has been a good money spinner without winning this season. Glorious Expert ran on well through the centre for fourth after a one-off trip from midfield. He's run well in back-to-back starts for his new trainer. Double Show made inroads late near the outside for fifth after a wide without cover trip from behind midfield. Colonel was next best after rolling forward three wide to track the pace from gate 11. He's in the right grade but is better suited over 1,200m. You'remyeverything ran on without threatening after making his run five back and one off the fence following a sluggish start. He prefers 1,200m.
