NEW ASIA SUNRISE, which proved difficult to load, will be required to perform satisfactorily in a stalls test before being allowed to race again. FIVE STARS AGENT shifted in on jumping and bumped heavily with GOOD LUCK BOY which became unbalanced. LUCKY DAY shifted in at the start, resulting in SO CAFFE being hampered. From a wide barrier, SO CAFFE was then shifted across behind runners in the early stages. NEW ASIA SUNRISE began awkwardly. Despite being ridden along in the early stages, LUCKY DAY failed to muster speed. When being steadied to obtain cover in the early stages, FIVE STARS AGENT proved difficult to settle and got its head up on a number of occasions. After the 1000 Metres, FIVE STARS AGENT again proved difficult to settle and got its head up when being checked away from the heels of POWER DRAGON. For a considerable distance approaching and passing the 800 Metres, IRON BOY was awkwardly placed behind GOOD LUCK BOY. Passing the 600 Metres, FIVE STARS AGENT was crowded for room inside IRON BOY which, when proving difficult to settle, shifted in away from the heels of GOOD LUCK BOY. Rounding the Home Turn, GOOD LUCK BOY and SOCCER BRAVE raced tight as GOOD LUCK BOY shifted out to obtain clear running. At the entrance to the Straight, FIVE STARS AGENT shifted out abruptly away from the heels of POWER DRAGON. In the Straight, A BEAUTIFUL raced with its head on the side and lay out. Throughout the race, BRIGHT STAR travelled wide and without cover. DIEGO KOSTA and NEW ASIA SUNRISE were sent for sampling.
