1 3 ABLE MARSHALL (CB336) G Schofield -- Shifted to middle from inside draw and settled 4Ls off speed near fence from 800 M until 350 M out. Shifted out and commenced to make sustained effort from 300 M and gained upper hand final stages.

3 4 SALUZI (CB147) E Saint-Martin -- Near midfield at 1200 M. Settled 6Ls off pace 800 M out. Commenced run 3-wide 400 M out. Vying for lead with every chance from 100 M out, just missed and had to settle for 3rd spot.

5 6 STOIC (BT155) A Marcus -- Midfield early then near rear at 1200 M. Steadily moved towards midfield 600 M out. Under pressure from 400 M but was awkward on heels early straight and had to be shifted out. Ran on a bit closing stages.
