1 11 REAL SUPREME (L247) B Prebble B/TT Began nicely, took a trail on rails following tearaway leader, 6Ls back on bend, gradually improved turning, kept coming to hit lead at 200m, drew away to score comfortably.
2 3 ADORATION (M214) D Whyte B Took a nice trial in front of midfield on rails, followed eventual winner and appreciated strong tempo, began to improve rounding bend, cam on well for 2nd.
3 9 BERIO (CJ202) C Y Ho B Worked across into running line, raced 7Ls or so off leader, had cover on circle, kept battling on in straight but no dash to match winner.
4 7 FLEET COMMAND (CK077) J Lloyd B Restrained to settle in midfield 8-9Ls off leader, had ideal run on rails and speed on, made gradual progress in straight to make frame.
5 8 GIFT IS GIFT (M053) Z Purton -- Settled in midfield, 10Ls or so away in running line, no excuses to bend, made steady ground in straight without threatening.
6 13 FOREVER ELATION (CK215) M Guyon B Crowded early, settled back at rear on rails, more than 12Ls off top end, aided by speed, gave a big start turning and worked home evenly to be nearest on line.
7 5 BEST WIN (L212) N Callan H No early speed, raced more than 10Ls away on rails, aided by strong tempo, made some minor progress in straight but peaked at 150m.
8 14 DOUBLE DRAGON (CK019) G Cheyne H Bounced out and took early lead, took trail when pressured, forced to follow a strong tempo to bend, didn't come on when asked and tired late after working.
9 1 EASY WINNER (L138) T H So B Planted 3 wide without cover in midfield, 10Ls away working with strong sections in middle stages, made a brief bid but flattened after a hard run.
10 6 BULLISH KING (L304) M Chadwick B/TT Showed speed to go forward and take up running, overaced and set strong sections in front, still 5Ls clear turning, worked too hard and stopped at 200m.
11 10 NEW GLORY (CK304) O Doleuze B/XB Dropped into a midfield spot 8-9Ls off break away leader, fair trip in running line but did race a little ungenerously, didn't find much when asked and battled in straight.
12 12 LEGEND EXPRESS (CK224) H W Lai B Crowded early, faded back to race at rear, 3 wide with cover, helped by speed, well back turning and made no serious progress.
13 4 VICTORY MASTER (M148) D Beadman -- Drifted back to race at rear, at least 12Ls off pace, aided by tempo, well back turning and didn't come as expected in straight. (See Racing Incidents.)
