1 3 ORIENTAL OILFIELD (BH251) A Munro -- In first 4 to straight. Close up when slightly hampered 200 M out. Ran on well to snatch race on line.
2 4 MOUNT SAPPHIRE (BJ163) K L Tsui -- Always prominent. Took up running approaching 1200 M and held slender lead into straight. Stayed on well but was rather erratic final 300 M. Just caught.
3 2 FANTASTIC VIEW (BH086) G Mosse -- Towards rear to straight. Was improving along rails when checked at 300 M. Ran on again close home.
4 1 NATURAL COLOUR (BH002) D Beadman -- Made steady headway from rear approaching home bend to be upsides with leaders early straight. Had every chance but could find no extra towards finish.
5 5 BEYOND CONTROL (BJ104) B Marcus -- In 3rd or 4th till failing to hold place rounding home bend. Renewed effort final 200 M without reaching leaders. (Lame.)
6 7 GOOD BOY (BC051) D Gauci -- Commenced run from rear rounding home bend and kept on steadily in straight.
7 8 GLORY OF CONCORD (BH005) M Kinane -- Made early running and was prominent to straight. Still in contention till fading under pressure from 200 M.
8 9 SOMETHING SPECIAL (BC024) J Marshall -- Made no show. (Demoted.)
9 6 POCKET FULL (BH163) K M Chin -- Made good progress from 5th to be close up home bend. Lost considerable ground when hung wide into straight. Not a factor thereafter.
