1 2 CLASSA SUPREME (CG261) O Peslier TT Established a 5Ls lead at 1000 M but always hung away from fence, 4-wide turning for home when 2Ls clear, very wayward veering left but did enough to win.
2 4 ALL OUR WAY (CE217) J Spencer -- About 7Ls back in midfield at halfway, a little closer on straightening, ran on quite well late but never looked like catching the wayward winner.
3 11 NICKU NICKU (CC372) A Starke SR Mostly 3-wide no cover, and worse than midfield until home turn when making headway about 6Ls off speed, stayed on stoutly for a place.
4 9 FLAME POWER (CG153) Y Take B1 Slowly away, soon 12Ls last, 10Ls last turning for home, ran on well, never nearer.
5 7 GOLD DIGGER (CD101) R Moore CP 6Ls down in mid-division at halfway, could only plug on evenly thereafter but still not far away from a place.
6 8 LOLLIPOP (CH006) D McDonogh H/TT Sent on to race 2-wide in 3rd about 5Ls off speed at 1000 M then 3Ls back off final bend, one-paced turning for home.
7 3 PERFECT TIME (CG249) D Whyte TT Slowly away, one off fence 6Ls down in mid-division at halfway, ran on only fairly before running out of room close home.
8 1 LIVERBIRD (CE055) W M Lai B Unbalanced at 1200 M, always a fair way back and worse than midfield, never dangerous.
9 12 TELECOM TYCOON (CC039) J Castellano B/TT Always in rear about 10Ls off pace until home turn, never found much room in homestretch and not given a hard race.
10 10 DASH (CG236) A Suborics -- 3Ls off pace in 2nd on fence at 800 M, 2Ls down and driven along turning for home, lost ground rapidly.
11 6 FIRST KNIGHT (CB357) G Boss B Never better than midfield nor closer than 5Ls to the pace.
12 5 PASSION (CE252) D Oliver CP/TT Fly-leapt passing winning post for first time and became unbalanced, 6Ls down in 4th at 800 M, hard pressed to keep up at 500 M, faded out thereafter. (Blood in trachea.)
