Recap by phillip woo
Flash Star came from behind midfield to sneak through along the inside rail to take control 50m out for an upset win at his seventh start. It was clearly his best run to date. Loving Vibes did everything right but get the win after claiming the lead near the 200m following a speed-tracking run. He's turned things around to place in back-to-back runs following a move to blinkers. Bits Superstar stayed on well for third after a prominent run. He's run well to place in twice and an unlucky seventh from his past three runs over the Valley 1,200m. Old-timer Mega Bonus lost a placing late after dictating the pace from gate three. It was his best effort from five starts this term. Superb Boy stayed on well for fifth after a handy run wide and without cover from gate seven. He should find his mark shortly in this grade. California Deeply came from last and widest out to finish next best. You can forgive the runs of both firming favourite Thunder Prince and King Oberon, who were held up for most the straight.
