1 6 GOOD BA BA (CE201) O Doleuze TT Bumped and lost ground on jumping, unable to slot in and posted 3 wide early, had some cover 5 to 6Ls back suited by tempo, travelled well 3 to 4 wide turning, closed best down centre to gain ascendancy late.
2 5 FLORAL PEGASUS (CG011) G Mosse TT Out with line, pressed on to hold a spot behind pace on rails 3Ls or so back, had an ideal trip, saved ground on bend, angled into clear turning, came with dash to hit lead at 200 M and fought hard losing advantage late.
3 4 JOYFUL WINNER (CE045) D Whyte TT No early toe, shared rear 7 to 8Ls back in running line, suited by tempo, still close to last on bend, came widest in straight, gradually took ground off them to be nearest on line. Nice effort.
4 9 ROYAL PRINCE (CH072) B Prebble TT Standard jump out, raced behind midfield 6Ls or so from top end, enjoyed a quiet run on rails using little to bend, took a split at 300 M and closed off nicely to make frame.
5 1 VENGEANCE OF RAIN (CD142) K Shea TT No pace from jump and assumed rearward position, raced 7 to 8Ls, helped by genuine tempo, still well back leaving bend, saved ground and made plenty of headway late between horses only warming up last 200 M. (Steadied 150 M.)
6 7 EGYPTIAN RA (CE002) S Dye -- Reasonable jump, pressed on and used a bit to take up running, over-raced as expected and set a useful speed, 1L clear on turning, held them off until 200 M but found out thereafter and couldn't respond.
7 10 TIBER (CD155) Y T Cheng XB/TT Showed pace from outset, led early before handing up after working to race behind leader, did share of work on bend with even tempo, challenged turning but couldn't dash, weakened out late.
8 2 THE DUKE (CB282) G Boss -- Even getaway, took a position in midfield racing 2 wide, 3 wide with cover from 800 M, trailed well on bend, didn't let down when sprint went on and only battled away in straight.
9 3 ABLE ONE (CG108) M Nunes -- Standard jump, to race midfield in running line 5Ls back, became unbalanced at 800 M and steadied, lost position and rearward on turning, last run at 300 M, closed only fairly thereafter.
10 11 SKYVIEW BAR (CG024) F Coetzee -- Well enough away, ended up first without cover 3Ls away, had a reasonable run but didn't get a breather, made presence felt to 250 M but struggled thereafter weakening out late.
11 8 DANACOURT (CE228) Z Purton H Out with line, unable to slot in and raced 3 wide without cover 4Ls back, gradually crept closer but used resources to do so, niggled on turning, couldn't contend turning and faded out. (Mucopus.)
