1 4 VICTORY MAGIC (T272) Z Purton B Held up behind midfield in 7th / 8th spot, travelled strongly throughout, made rapid headway entering straight to take charge inside 300M, soon well clear and kept on strongly in the lead, never in danger.
2 7 AMBITIOUS CHAMPION (S083) C Schofield SR Slow to muster, in mid-pack early, proved difficult to settle and shuffled back to near the rear passing 1500M, held up early straight, stayed on moderately over final 250M, no threat to runaway winner.
3 5 MR GNOCCHI (P080) N Rawiller B/TT From wide gate taken across behind runners early stages, settled down 6-7Ls back in rear pair, brought wide for his run entering straight, ran on moderately for 3rd without threatening winner.
4 8 BASIC TRILOGY (V133) T Berry B Close up early stages, sat back in midfield about 3-4Ls off the pace, had every chance turning in, briefly went 2nd 150M, one paced and beaten to 4th late stages.
5 9 RENAISSANCE ART (T197) N Callan -- Never far off from pace, well placed to strike turning in and loomed a threat 400M, ran on well early straight but couldn't sustain run over final 150M, faded towards the finish.
6 2 GIOVANNI CANALETTO (V193) J Moreira TT Not far off early stages, shuffled back to midfield passing 1400M, found disappointing little off the home turn, kept on same pace to line. (No Vet findings)

8 10 SAVVY NATURE (T127) M Chadwick B In midfield caught wide no cover from 1500M, strode forward and took over the lead form 1200M, headed 450M and outpaced by rivals in the run to the line.
9 1 HARBOUR MASTER (S145) G Mosse SR Dropped back to near the rear, ended up as back-marker 1500M, 8Ls adrift in middle stages but crept closer over the home turn, didn't have much luck in running when held up on the inside to 200M then awkwardly placed near 100M.
10 6 ENSURING (S437) B Prebble -- Switched off to the rear early stages, switched out to 3-wide approaching back-straight, improved to midfield but lost cover from 1200M, run ended 250M, eased when no chance. (No Vet findings)
11 11 PREMIUM CHAMPION (T187) C Y Ho B/TT Caught wide early stages, moved forward to race in the 2-path behind leaders, had not much to offer off the bend, gave way 300M.
