1 9 LUCKY CHAMPION (CD178) M Rodd -- 3-wide with cover 6Ls behind in 9th at 1200 M, 4-wide off home turn when 3Ls down in mid-division, quickened up well to lead at 100 M, drew away nicely.
2 2 SPINNING CITY (CB252) G Mosse B Head up and keen early on, 3-back the fence 4Ls behind in 6th at 1200 M, 2-wide and 2Ls down in 5th or so at the home turn, brief lead 250 M out, headed about 100 M out, hung on for 2nd.
3 14 THE ONLY ONE (CB383) H W Lai B Had the run of the race 2Ls off pace in 4th on fence down backstretch, under pressure to hold this spot at 500 M, all out down the stretch but stuck on gamely and narrowly missed 2nd.
4 11 GREENESSY (CE001) W M Lai B Slowly away, over-raced a little and mostly 3-deep (sometimes without cover out 4-wide) when 3Ls or 4Ls off pace in mid-division until 600 M out, a neck down in 3rd at 200 M, no extra, nice debut.
5 7 MILITARY OPTION (CD237) C Williams -- 7Ls behind in 10th when 2-wide at 1200 M, 4Ls behind but still in 10th at final bend, kept on fairly past some tired rivals.
6 5 VICTORY MARBLE (BV275) D Holland -- Soon led, never clear by much more than 1L until home turn, headed at 250 M and no extra thereafter.
7 3 PEARL OF INDIA (CD298) G Schofield -- 2-wide and 2Ls or 3Ls behind in 5th or so until the 600 M, 2Ls behind on straightening, one-paced from then on and never looked likely.
8 4 REAL PARTNER (CD313) D Whyte TT 2-wide and 8Ls behind and one from rear at 1200 M, 6Ls down and still in 13th when 4-wide off home turn, finished off moderately down centre of track.
9 13 THOUSAND WINS (CD352) R Fradd -- Sent on to be 3-wide without cover when 2Ls behind in 3rd at 1200 M, a neck down in 2nd at the final bend, swamped at the 200 M, wilted.
10 1 NILOMETER (CD052) F Coetzee TT 2-wide when 5Ls off pace in 8th at 1200 M, held up off home turn when 4Ls behind in 9th, clear 350 M out, making minor headway but held by principals when checked at 200 M.
11 10 CHERISHED (CB160) P H Lo P 4-back the fence and 7Ls behind in 11th at 1200 M, 5Ls behind in 12th off home turn, no impression.
12 6 ENRICHING (CD116) E Saint-Martin BO 2-wide and 1L behind in 2nd from 1200 M to 600 M, 1L down in 3rd off home turn, weakened steadily inside final 300 M.
13 12 KALIMANTAN (CB262) B Prebble -- 3-wide with cover when 8Ls behind in 12th at 1200 M, under pressure when 4-wide and 5Ls behind towards rear off final bend, didn't trouble leaders.
14 8 PARADIS (CB044) S Dye B/TT Always in rear and mostly detached at least 7Ls off the pace.
