1 6 SMART WINNER (CA019) G Mosse SR Raced 2-wide 4 to 5Ls off pace through to home straight, clear run 300 M out and quickened up well to hit front 100 M out, readily.
2 2 DASHING WINNER (CA018) O Doleuze SR Settled in midfield racing 3-wide and 3 to 4Ls off lead until 600 M out, gradually drew closer to lead but no answer to winner's winning surge 200 M out, couldn't peg back deficit.
3 11 LOYAL DEVOTION (BV075) Hammer-Hansen -- Never on the track - 4-wide and 5Ls off pace down back straight, 5-wide without cover whilst improving round final bend, entered straight 6-wide, stayed on well.
4 9 THE KING OF CLOYNE (BS206) D Dunn -- 8Ls off speed on fence 600 M out, disappointed for running along inside 300 M out, switched back to centre of track 200 M out when 5Ls down, finished off very strongly.
5 14 MERRY MERRY (BV298) M W Leung -- Soon led though by never any more than a length, ceded advantage to winner about 100 M out, kept on same pace.
6 5 DR MORE (BV164) S Dye -- About 5Ls off speed and nearest fence 1000 M out, apparently struggling 300 M out when on fencre and 4Ls down, ran on well again once granted a clear run inside final 200 M.
7 1 WISHMASTER (CB240) M Kinane SR Awkwardly away and content to sit 6 to 7Ls off pace, entered straight racing 5-wide 5Ls off speed, briefly threatened to challenge leaders 200 M out when 2Ls down, soon no extra.
8 8 FANTASY (CB187) E Saint-Martin -- Keen early on racing 4-wide and 3Ls off leader 1000 M out, steadily drew closer and all out to go less than 1L off lead 200 M out, bit one-paced final 150 M and lost position. a144
9 13 TRUST ME (CA144) W M Lai -- Raced prominently 3-wide and 2Ls off pace 1000 M out, in 2nd place less than 1L off lead 200 M out, soon no extra.

11 10 KEV BUSHIDO (BV166) F Coetzee SR Clear 2nd place 1000 M out wide, at leader MERRY MERRY's quarters 800 M out racing 2-wide, hard ridden 300 M out to maintain challenge but soon swamped and faded final 100 M.
12 3 ZIETENGO BOY (BV143) W Woods -- Never on terms - raced 3-wide 5Ls off pace down back straight, similarly placed in straight but would never land a blow, well beaten 300 M out.
13 4 HANDBAG DRAGON (BT253) D Whyte -- On back of speed racing 2-wide and 2.5Ls off leader 800 M out, niggled along 600 M out to pick up bridle, no response and beaten at top of straight.
