1 2 BULLISH LUCK (CC155) B Prebble B Dropped out in rear early and 4-wide on straightening when 7Ls last, picked up very well to lead 150 M out, ran on strongly.
2 4 AIN'T HERE (CC288) G Mosse -- Worse than midfield down backstretch when 8Ls off pace, over 5Ls down in 7th entering straight, 2Ls off pace in 5th and closing off well at 200 M, no answer to winner's kick, however.
3 8 HIGH INTELLIGENT (CD317) M Rodd -- Prominent about 2Ls or 3Ls off pace in 2nd or 3rd until home straight, kept on to lead 300 M out, headed about 150 M out, just hung on for a place.
4 1 SUPER KID (CC305) D Whyte -- About 5Ls off pace in midfield down the back, a little closer entering home straight, 1L down in 2nd at 200 M but no extra close home when tending to carry head awkwardly.
5 11 ELEGANT FASHION (CC190) L Innes -- About 6Ls back on fence down backstretch, 5Ls down in 7th when 2-wide on straightening, staying on well when dis- appointed for running at 100 M and switched out, ran on.
6 3 PERFECT PARTNER (CD163) F Coetzee TT About 4Ls or 5Ls off pace on fence in 5th until home straight, 2Ls off pace and one of many chances at 200 M, failed to follow through.
7 7 PALETTE NATURAL (CB284) C Williams -- Settled towards rear about 8Ls off pace until 600 M, always outpaced from top of home straight.
8 5 BOWMAN'S CROSSING (CB138) E Saint-Martin SR Slowly away, about 9Ls off pace near rear until 800 M, 7Ls last entering straight, never dangerous.
9 9 SATURN (CD154) O Doleuze P/H Soon led on fence, over 2Ls clear at 1000 M and same entering homestretch, faded once headed 300 M out.
10 6 GEM OF INDIA (CC008) G Schofield -- About 4Ls off pace in 5th at 800 M, 3Ls down in 3rd at final bend, steadied when swamped at 150 M, weakened further.
