2 10 EXCITING TIMES (CB169) F Coetzee TT Led by 2Ls on fence 1100 M out, 1L to the good entering home straight, shot over 2Ls clear 200 M out, tired and caught by winner 40 M from line.
3 5 SUNBELL (CB391) R Fradd -- 3-wide and 4Ls off the pace 1000 M out, steadied 800 M out, 4Ls down when disappointed for running 350 M out and again about 200 M out, kept on well to be nearest at the finish.
4 7 SPINNING CITY (CB252) G Mosse B On fence about 5Ls or 6Ls off pace until 700 M out when badly checked and unbalanced, 4Ls down at top of home straight, stayed on well but never really looked like winning.
5 3 DESERT STORM (CA048) O Doleuze TT Awkwardly away, settled in rear about 7Ls or 8Ls off the pace until being checked 700 M out, 6Ls behind lead on the swing, finished off quite well, never nearer.
6 13 FLYING SUCCESS (CB113) P H Lo -- 4-wide but with cover when about 5Ls off the pace from back to home straight, finished off nearer stand's rail, 3Ls down 200 M out, kept on, couldn't reach principals.
7 11 NEVER SAY NEVER (BT028) K T Yeung SR/TT 2-wide and 4Ls off the pace 1000 M out, 3Ls behind turning for home, just over 2Ls down and with place prospects 200 M out, no extra.
8 4 SENSIBLE WAY (CA175) G Schofield SR Bounded exiting gates, 3-wide and 2Ls off the speed 1100 M out, still 3-wide but 3Ls down off final bend, one-paced thereafter.
9 14 GOOD HEART (CC026) S Dye -- On fence 4Ls off the speed in midfield 1000 M out, similarly placed when driven along to take closer order 500 M out, could never get to leaders.
10 2 OPERA MAGIC (CB404) M Cahill B Fractious in the gates, had the run of the race on fence 2Ls off the pace 1100 M out, 2-wide and 1L off the pace 400 M out, lacked acceleration.
11 1 ARMONDO (CB387) B Prebble B Slowly away and crowded at the start, 2-wide and 4Ls off the speed 1000 M out, 4-wide into home straight, 3Ls down 200 M out, faded through closing stages.
12 8 TAMAR (CA310) M Walker B 4-wide without cover and 4Ls off pace from 1000 M out to home straight, soon faded out.
