Recap by phillip woo
Super Commander led from gate 12 and kept finding after slipping clear by three lengths 400m out for a first win at his ninth start this term. He did place twice over this trip in October. Lifeline Express stayed on well for second after a prominent run. He's improved from one run to the next and will be saluting shortly. Odds-on favourite James Tak whacked on one paced chasing the winner from a middle gate. He couldn't build on a last-start win with a 10-pound claimer atop. Chilli Baba ran on well for fourth after making his run near the stands side from behind midfield. It was a pleasing effort with a return to the course and distance of his only win. Less Is More ran on well near the far side for fifth after biding his time one from the rear. It was an encouraging debut effort. Timestorm only plodded after a midfield run on the grandstand side. He's crying out for downgrade. Both Metro Warrior and newcomer Deep Pursuit were withdrawn after being restless in the stalls by order of the stewards on veterinary advice.
