Recap by phillip woo

After a patient ride third last, Courier Magic swooped late down the outside to claim favourite Strongest Boy in the dying stages for back-to-back wins under Ben Thompson. He won well despite a rise in class and can win again. Strongest Boy did everything but get the win after working to the lead near the 100m following a rails run from worse than midfield. It was another good effort following a last-start win. D Star launched a late run for third after a patient ride second last from gate 11. He's improved from one run to the next following a downgrade. Dragon Star kept on reasonably well for fourth after working hard to eventually lead 1,000m out following a wide trip from better than midfield. It was a good effort in defeat. Well-backed Little Fairy kept on one paced after a prominent run on the fence. He wasn't good enough following a last-start win in Class Five at Sha Tin. Galvanic failed to lift after chasing the leading pair one off in third from the 1,000m. He couldn't deliver carrying top weight following a win. Yeaboi ran on from towards the rear without threatening.
