| 2 | 7 | CAP FERRAT (K021) | H Bowman | -- | Obtained running in midfield, brought wide 600M to challenge, picked up well and challenged for the lead mid-straight, just couldn't hold off winner final 100M. |
| 3 | 10 | BUNDLE AWARD (K020) | A Atzeni | E | Taken back from wide draw, held up last 7-8Ls off leader, brought wide into straight before closing off strongly to claim 3rd just in time. |
| 4 | 8 | PRAY FOR MIR (J245) | M Chadwick | CP | Sent to the lead as expected, pressed by rivals early straight, lost lead 200M but refused to give in, battled hard to the line for 4th. |
