2 7 NOBLE VICTORY (CC022) S Dye P- Led. Kept on in straight whilst hanging out and proving difficult to ride. Caught by the winner when already one-paced close home.
3 4 ATHLETIC GOLD (CC241) O Doleuze B/TT2 Sat behind the leader in 2nd or 3rd position 2Ls down at 600 M. Kept on one-paced in straight without posing a threat to the first pair.

6 5 CAPABEL (CD195) C Munce -- Soon dropped to the back from wide draw. Save ground along rail to be 5Ls down upon straightening. Made up some late ground but simply had too much to do.
