2 5 MAGNIFICENT (CB390) B Prebble B Head up at start, settled on fence in rear at least 6Ls off pace until home straight, making good headway at 200 M when switched inside at 200 M, kept finding but post came too soon.
3 4 NICKU NICKU (CC372) G Mosse SR 2-wide towards rear 5Ls or so off the speed until home- stretch, ran on well through the field to take 3rd place close home.
4 11 LOK WAH TREASURE (CA361) E Saint-Martin TT Slow break, had the run of the race 2Ls off pace on fence between 3rd and 5th place from 1200 M to home turn, 2Ls down in 4th at 200 M, lacked an extra gear.
5 14 KINGSTON GLORY (CC310) R Fradd B Prominent but quite keen down the backstretch, moved up 3-wide on straightening when a neck down in 3rd taking home turn, led 300 M out but headed at 200 M, tired near line.
6 1 HAPPY HEROES (CD261) D Whyte B Slow start, 4-back on fence about 4Ls off pace in midfield until home turn, place prospects when over 2Ls down in 5th at 200 M, one-paced.

8 2 JUST TOO GOOD (CB150) O Doleuze V Slow start but recovered to be 3-back on fence in mid- division at 1000 M, niggled along at 800 M and 2Ls off pace in 5th at home turn, drifted back steadily.
9 12 SHINING LIGHT (CD119) S K Sit B Never better than midfield, 8Ls last at 1000 M, made some very minor late ground past tired rivals late on.
10 9 RENA'S WUNDERBAR (CA285) C Brown B 3-wide no cover in midfield from 1200 M to 800 M, 3Ls down in midfield when 4-wide taking home turn, no impression.

12 13 UNIVERSAL GLORY (BV162) C Munce B 2-wide and 1L off pace in 3rd at 1200 M, under pressure at 900 M to maintain prominent position, very weak in stretch.
13 10 DASH FOR VICTORIES (CB389) M Rodd V 4-wide no cover for much of backstretch when about 6Ls off pace and towards rear, effort when 4Ls down and 5-wide on straightening, soon faded and eased late.
14 6 MILLENNIUM SUPREME (BV228) G Schofield CP/TT Always in rear bunch at least 6Ls off pace and 3-wide with cover until home turn, never on terms and eased through final 150 M.
