Recap by phillip woo
Rank outsider Not Usual Star dashed well to get up in the final stride from behind midfield to win a blanket finish. He was able to build on an OK effort from midfield on his debut last month. Punted late Mark The Moment found one too good after briefly hitting the front 50m out tracking the leader Majestic Knight from a wide draw. He can bob up at any moment after seconds once on each Sha Tin surface over 1,200m from three starts. Naboo Legend finished a close third after a handy run. It was an improved effort after misfiring in his opening two local runs, once with blood in his trachea. Plunged late Majestic Knight was swamped in the late stages after rushing forward to lead from a middle draw. It was another honest effort carrying top weight. Favourite Golden Express ran on without menacing near the outside after making his run three from the rear. He got too far back in the run. Ready To Win ran on without threatening down the outside after making his run one from the rear. Pulsar Strider peaked on his run 50m out after looming a chance 150m out from behind midfield.
