Recap by phillip woo
Brownneedsfurther barrelled late through the centre of the pack to just knock off the short-priced favourite Cloud Nine for back-to-back wins from 13 starts. He's hit a rich vein of form and can win again. Cloud Nine did everything right but get the win after leading 200m out following a box-seat run. He's as honest as the day is long without winning. Punted late Friends Of Shajing ran on nicely down the outside to just miss the quinella spot after a wide trip from midfield. He was able to build on a ground-covering 10th last Wednesday. Invictus grudgingly gave way after rushing forward three wide to sit second 700m out. He's trending towards a win. Joker Orbit kept on one paced for fifth after travelling better than midfield wide without cover. He has given a better sight in two of three runs following a downgrade. Free Pony came from last and widest to pick up a minor cheque. He is a well-rated runner on the back of a win last term off 51. Podium ran on without threatening along the inside after making his run two from the rear.
