| 3 | 6 | OPTIMISM (S150) | J Moreira | B/TT | Taken back from the widest gate briefly before going forth and then back again to settle for last position 900M out, given reminders and switched widest entering home straight, made good impression closing stages to grab 3rd late. |

| 5 | 2 | MY BLESSING (V164) | O Murphy | XB/TT | Moderate start, travelled just worse than midfield 3-wide down back straight and around home bend, not much room early in home straight and could only keep on the same pace in the run home. |

| 10 | 1 | FOREVER FUN (S130) | K K Chiong | B/TT | Led or disputed lead far side, 1L back in 2nd coming onto home bend, weakened steadily in home straight. |
| 11 | 12 | INTELLECTUAL GLIDE (S124) | K Teetan | B | Soon taken back from a wide gate, saved a lot of ground turning in, but no clear passage most of way in straight. |
| 12 | 11 | ALL TIMES LUCKY (P064) | C Schofield | XB | With leaders early before shifting back to 2L 4th 3-wide, renewed effort approaching the Rock to close on leaders briefly, folded up quickly from a prominent position inside the final 150 metres. |
