1 4 BERLINSKI (P014) B Prebble -- Enjoyed a nice run in the race stalking the leaders. Held up early in the straight but manoeuvred out into clear running after the 400m and had the race in its keeping after the 100m.
2 12 TAYSIDE (N312) R Fourie -- Parked worse than midfield, 2 deep with cover. Shifted out widest in the run home and finished off strongly.
3 5 DRAGON KEEPER (N338) U Rispoli B-/SR-/P1 Vied for leading duties during the early & middle stages whilst travelling on the fence. Looked to be still going strong near the 150m but was overhauled after the 100m.
4 6 FLYING IBIS (P023) T Clark XB1/TT1 Steadied early from the outside barrier and was taken back to settle in last position along the fence with cover. Railed up in the straight and closed off well to make the frame.
5 10 PEARL WIN (P085) H W Lai -- Vied for leading duties during the early & middle stages, travelling 1 off no cover. Was still in the hunt after the furlong but started to fade over the final 100m.
6 2 JOYFUL LUCK (M223) K C Ng -- Effectively raced 1 out 1 back. Had every possible chance but never really quickened and only just maintained its position over the final 400m.
7 7 MAN AND MING (P026) T Angland -- Camped midfield the paint had cover. Stayed on at the same speed in the home stretch.
8 9 PACKING DE LAGO (N278) N Callan -- Travelled in a handy position, 2 deep with cover. Didn't find any extra at the business end and commenced to give some ground late.
9 1 LOVELY BOY (N322) W C Marwing CP1 Camped 3 back, 2 deep with cover. Kept up a reasonable gallop down the running.
10 11 PRINCIPAL (P108) Z Purton H1 Ridden along early but couldn't go the early speed of the race, settling 3rd from the rear on the rails, had cover. Kept to the inside in the final stretch and ran ok.
11 8 MR GNOCCHI (P080) O Doleuze B1/TT1 Settled about 3 wide with cover, midfield. Swung the home turn with one wider. Was dour in the home straight.
12 14 ARCHER'S BOW (P055) T Queally -- Taken back from a wide gate and travelled in 2nd last position, 1 off with cover. Went for runs through the field in the home straight and finished off fairly, became awkwardly placed on heels close to home.
13 13 ALL LUCKY (P010) M Chadwick B/TT Settled behind midfield, 2-3 deep with cover. Struggled in the home straight weakening noticeably over the final furlong.
14 3 ALL MY GLORY (P024) T H So -- Raced on the speed but was posted 3 deep without cover on the circle. Commenced to hang out badly after the 700m and was never likely thereafter finishing well back.
