1 4 TIMBER CITY (CC031) B Prebble B Away well and held lead briefly early on, settled 1L behind leader in 2nd from 800 M to homestretch, led over 200 M out, driven out.
2 11 DANEFACTOR (CA006) M Rodd -- Pressed on to lead at 1000 M and about 1L clear on fence at 800 M, same margin in front at home turn, headed over 200 M out, stayed on gamely but lacked an extra kick.
3 1 MASTER ABLE (CD349) O Doleuze -- Fractious at start, 3-back on fence about 3Ls or 4Ls off speed in mid-division until hoem turn when momentarily held up for a run, stayed on well once clear to fill in a place inside final 50 M.
4 3 SPARKLE (CB406) D Whyte V Always prominent 2-wide and within 2Ls of the pace in 4th position or so until taking home turn, every chance of filling a place, no extra when it mattered.
5 2 SILLY BOY (CC094) S Dye TT Best away, box-seat run about 2Ls off pace on fence until entering home straight, stayed on fairly thereafter but always held by quinella pair.
6 7 SPOKESMAN (CD099) E Saint-Martin -- Steadied at 1000 M, towards rear about 5Ls off pace at 800 M, a little closer on straightening, stayed on fairly without threatening principals.
7 12 KIWI DASH (CC281) F Coetzee B/TT Held up towards rear about 5Ls or 6Ls off pace on fence until home turn, made some minor late ground.
8 10 NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) C Brown -- 8Ls off speed in rear at 1000 M, 6Ls down and 2-wide in 12th on straightening, held up at 300 M, made a little ground but never likely to take a hand.
9 8 ACE KING (CD265) C Munce -- Worse than midfield about 5Ls back at 1000 M, niggled along to lie up at 700 M, further back and struggling in rear on the swing for home, weakened further.
10 14 PLEASANT JOURNEY (CC266) Y T Cheng -- 2Ls off pace in 3rd and 3-wide without cover at 800 M, under pressure to maintain this prominent position off home turn, drifted out of contention.
11 6 MILLENNIUM SUPREME (BV228) G Schofield CP/TT 5-wide no cover at 1100 M, 3Ls off speed and worse than midfield at 800 M, losing ground and under pressure when 5Ls down on straightening, soon well beaten.
12 13 JOY AND TREASURE (CD251) H W Lai V Towards rear 3-wide with cover and 5Ls off pace at 1000 M, under pressure to stay in touch when 4-wide on straigh- tening, dropped out.
13 5 CONSTELLATION (CE025) R Fradd B Didn't break well, 4-wide no cover from 900 M when about 3Ls off pace in mid-division, 4-wide taking home turn, very weak in stretch and eased late.
14 9 FRIENDS FOREVER (CD245) S K Sit CP-/B2 Slow start, 2-wide and 3Ls off speed at 900 M, niggled along at 600 M to retain prominent position, didn't succeed, dropped out tamely in home straight.
