1 5 TOFFEE (CE236) G Mosse -- 2-wide and 2Ls off pace in 2nd at 800 M, 1L down in 2nd at home turn, led over 250 M out, all out, just hung on.
2 3 BEAUTY PLUS (CC213) D Whyte TT 8Ls off speed towards rear at 800 M, same margin behind when 3-wide tackling final bend, ran on very strongly, only just failed.
3 4 SUPER BALL (CD064) E Saint-Martin B Over 2Ls off pace in 3rd on fence at 800 M, same taking home turn, 2Ls down in 2nd at 200 M, kept on finding, went very close.
4 11 BALL OF FIRE (CD020) H K Yim V About 9Ls off pace in rear at 800 M and same off final turn, ran on very strongly late, went close.
5 1 GREAT IDEA (CC178) R Fradd B Steadied at 1000 M, 2-wide and 6Ls off speed in mid-division from 800 M to final bend, staying on well at 200 M when 3Ls down in 4th, couldn't sustain effort close home.
6 12 A-TACK (CC343) A Delpech B Worse than midfield about 6Ls or 7Ls behind until home turn, outpaced by principals.
7 9 ONLY YOU (CD210) W M Lai -- Lost ground at start, towards rear about 7Ls or 8Ls behind leader until home turn, made no impression.
8 10 SIR HUMOR (CD038) F Coetzee -- At least 9Ls off pace in rear and 2-wide until home turn, never a factor.
9 2 KIMBO KID (CC379) S Dye -- 4-wide no cover at 1000 M but got in 2-wide at 800 M when over 4Ls off speed in 5th place, same taking final bend, found wanting in home stretch.
