1 | 8 | JUST FANTASTIC (CL291) | D Whyte | H | Began fairly, gradually took up running out wide down far side, crossed for rails coming out of back straight causing interferences, held a 1L break turning home, kicked nearly 2Ls clear over 200 M out, held on well to the line. |
2 | 13 | SAMMY'S FALCON (CK383) | K C Leung | B/TT | Close up early, soon settled wide in midfield without cover, circled field around the bend joining 3rd into straight, fought on steadily to reach 2nd 300 M out without threatening the winner. |

4 | 11 | EMPIRE CITY (CL169) | B Doyle | H-/XB1 | Close up early, shuffled back to midfield approaching home bend, commenced run turning for home, veered inward behind runners early in straight, did best work late. (Tactic questioned.) |
