1 | 10 | BESPOKE MASTER (CL227) | Z Purton | -- | Enjoyed a nice run in the race box seating. Peeled off the fence on straightening and got to the line strongly. |
2 | 11 | EXCELLENT WIN (CL234) | T H So | CP | Sent forward and eventually crossed & raced outside the leader after the 800m. Swung wide on the home turn & fought hard in the straight but laid in over the concluding stages & just failed. |
3 | 7 | GENUINE LEADER (N046) | N Callan | B1 | Went back from an outside alley settling behind midfield, 3 wide with cover. Swooped late after navigating clear running in the home straight. |
4 | 6 | SUPERIOR WARRIOR (CL167) | H W Lai | B/TT | Led along the paint. Skipped a couple of lengths clear early in the straight and was only caught over the final stages. |
5 | 1 | ALWAYS WELL (M112) | D Beadman | -- | Camped midfield, 2 deep with cover. Finished off soundly. |
6 | 3 | INTELLECTUALSTRIDE (CL409) | Y T Cheng | B/SR | Parked 1 out 1 back. Wanted to hang in the straight & shifted ground near the furlong when closing off fairly. |
7 | 12 | DRAGON CHOICE (CL338) | J Lloyd | B/TT | Posted 3 wide without cover, in a midfield position. Kept up a sound gallop despite the wide run. |
8 | 2 | DISPATCHER (M139) | D Whyte | -- | Jumped well and settled just behind midfield the fence. Didn't show any turn off foot in the straight and went to the line one paced. |

10 | 5 | KING PENDRAGON (N018) | M Du Plessis | B1 | Not the best away then was shuffled back to settle with the backmakers, 2 wide with cover. Made up some ground in the straight but never really got into the race. |
