2 3 WIND SPEEDER (E281) Sent for sampling post-race.
3 1 HERCULES (C476) Near the 600 Metres lay out slightly when racing tight to the inside of VALHALLA which lay in and as a result was eased.

4 4 AUGUST MOON (D409) No report.
5 12 VIVA A LA (G282) Shortly after the start was bumped by HAPPILY FRIENDS which shifted out and away from AUGUST MOON after initially being taken out by that runner. In the early part of the Home Straight lay in and had difficulty obtaining clear running to the outside of GET THE MONIES when that runner shifted out. Over the concluding stages, when continuing to lay in, was positioned close to the heels of AUGUST MOON and could not be ridden out fully to the finish of the event.
6 6 GENERAL ACE (G425) Shortly after the start was bumped and then from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. Near the 600 Metres was steadied away from HERCULES when that runner gave ground in front.
