1 8 GENUINE LEADER (N046) Z Purton B Bumped start but recovered quickly to sit 2nd on quarters of leader. Shaken up 400m, took lead 200m and kept on strongly to the line.
2 4 TURF MAGIC (CK307) T Angland B No early speed and soon 3rd last. Lost position back stretch, last into turn. Weaved passage through horses in straight, doing best work at the finish.
3 5 CAPE CANAVERAL (N393) M Chadwick TT Ridden early, took cover 1100m, got shuffled back turn. Found passage between horses in straight and ran on well. Jockey cited for lack of judgement.
4 10 SAMADHI (N200) H W Lai B1 Ridden up from wide draw but able to slot in one-off before turn. Kept on steadily in straight but tightened final 50m.
5 2 GAMEKEEPERS (M357) D Whyte -- First to jump but eased to hold 2nd on rail. Dropped to 3rd around turn, had clear rail passage in straight but only one paced.
