| 1 | 8 | NORTH HILL (CJ082) | W M Lai | -- | At midfield near the fence to home straight. Swung 3-wide and was 3Ls down leaving the bend. Ran on well top of home straight and kicked clear when asked passing 200M. Had enough to hold off rivals close home. |
| 2 | 5 | HAPPY BOY (L299) | Z Purton | TT- | Proved difficult to settled early and raced behind midfield on fence. Took inside run and was 4Ls back rounding home turn. Got traffic until 300M. Kept making up ground from the winner once into clear but the post came too soon. |
| 3 | 1 | SAPELLI (CK191) | D Whyte | -- | Travelled 2-wide behind midfield to home turn. Taken 4-wide and was 4Ls off into final stretch. Kept improving but couldn't match the finishing touch of the front pair. Held 3rd and left the rest of the field far behind. |
| 4 | 6 | BOUNCER (CJ074) | C Y Ho | SR/TT | 2-wide towards rear to home turn. Forced 5-wide and was the last turning into home. 5Ls away passing 400M. Made up some ground late but was well beaten by the front trio. |
