Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 6 | SUPER SATIN (CK116) | D Whyte | -- | Placed in midfield 2-wide, shifted out to improve round the outside of field passing 700M, had an uninterrupted run from 400M and made steady headway to just get up on the line. |
| 2 | 8 | SUPER PISTACHIO (CL099) | F Coetzee | TT | Never far off in 5th and was ideally positioned to strike turning in, quickened to lead 250M, stuck to his task well but was just caught on the line. |
| 3 | 3 | BRAVE KID (CK391) | B Prebble | -- | Along the inside in mid-division but not helped by the slow pace in middle stages, progressed steadily in straight, had every chance but was out-sprinted by the first two inside 250 M. |
| 4 | 1 | BEAUTY FLASH (CK314) | L Dettori | TT | Always close up behind leaders, switched out from fence passing 600M to improve, kept on well but turned one paced final 100 M. |
| 5 | 5 | KING DANCER (CK129) | G Mosse | CP | Bagged a rail position in midfield, saved ground on the inside but was being held up when the pace quickened over the final turn, stayed on without reaching the principals. |
| 6 | 4 | FAIR TRADE (CK345) | S Dye | -- | Taken back from draw 14, settled in last and over 10Ls behind in early stages, made his move round the outside of field passing halfway, battled on but was gradually outpaced inside 300 M. |
| 7 | 7 | IRIAN (CL187) | D Beadman | B1/H1 | Given a patient ride behind midfield, swung 3-wide for home, made some headway down the outside but never looked like getting there. |
| 8 | 9 | BEAUTY LEGEND (CL143) | A Gryder | B1 | Positioned 2-wide in midfield, 4Ls off the pace inside 400M, kept on without making ground on the leaders. |
| 9 | 13 | JOLLY GOOD (CL134) | A Suborics | -- | Dropped back towards the rear and waited with till 350M, stayed on but lacked the extra pace to get seriously involved. |
| 10 | 2 | TUSCAN SPIRIT (CK055) | C Williams | -- | Obtained a spot just in behind leaders, proved difficult to settle down the back straight, moved to a striking position passing 600M, had every chance but stamina ran out over final 200 M. |
| 11 | 10 | STRAIGHT FORWARD (CL100) | M Chadwick | TT | Ordinary jump but gradually moved forward to track leader, was disappointingly one-paced when put under pressure and failed to get involved. |
| 12 | 14 | GRAND DRAGON (CK064) | J Lloyd | -- | Took them along uncontested and set slow sectionals, headed 300M and dropped rapidly out of contention. |
| 13 | 11 | LITTLE DREAMS (CL095) | W C Marwing | XB1/TT | Towards the tail of the field over 10Ls back, given a waiting ride but couldn¡¦t quicken with the rest inside 400 M. Never a factor. |
| 14 | 12 | APPRECIATION (CK161) | O Doleuze | V/TT | At rear over 10Ls behind leader in a slowly run race, didn't find anything in straight and was eased 200M out. |
