Moon Reign, sent off at 80/1, won the 2m Harvesting What Matters Most Novices’ Hurdle at Perth on good ground, beating Chicker by a length and a quarter with Hunters Spring third. Moon Reign settled in mid-division before dropping towards the rear approaching the third-last. He made steady headway from two out, was angled left and ridden approaching the last, then responded well to lead in the final furlong. Chicker pulled hard early and disputed the lead, clipped the fifth but jumped well enough until making a mistake at the second-last where he was headed. He stayed close to the winner passing the last and battled on without quite being able to get back up.
