1 11 VICTOR DELIGHT (M121) W C Marwing TT Held up 2-wide in midfield, picked up really well passing 300M and produced a powerful finish to lead close home.
2 3 SAME WORLD (N098) B Prebble H/SR Tracked leader in a steadily run race, swiftly took over 250M, kept on well under a strong ride and looked likely to win, caught by a fast finisher near the line.
3 9 BEAUTY TOUCH (N001) M Chadwick H/TT Dropped back, travelled well in a rearward position, took time to get going turning in, strong late run final 150M.
4 8 FINEZZA (M035) T Clark B/XB Outside of last pair, 6Ls off the pace in middle stages, taken wide to challenge nearing 400M, stayed on well for 4th.
5 2 MR BOND (M098) T Queally -- Settled in midfield along the inside, kept on steadily over final 300M for a non-threatening 5th.
6 1 FUN RIDER (CK231) C Lemaire B Switched off to last, patiently ridden, driven 300M, closed off reasonably well but no threat to leaders.
7 7 WITHINMYHEART (M176) H W Lai -- Never far off leaders in a steadily run race, well placed to strike turning for home but could not close in on leaders, kept on same pace final 200M.
8 5 ENABLING (M229) D Whyte B Soon in front, set steady pace and appeared to be travelling well in middle stages, found less than expected when put to pressure, weakened rapidly final 100M.
9 10 GENKI TWINS (N223) N Callan XB/TT1 Close up behind leaders, saved ground along the fence, had every chance passing 300M, no extra and outpaced inside 150M.
10 4 BANKSTERS BONUS (N113) G Mosse SR Settled 2-wide towards the rear, driven 350M but failed to pick up.
11 12 PERCY JACKSON (N188) R Fourie -- Caught racing 3-wide in midfield, outpaced nearing 400M, soon behind.
12 6 SATIRICAL BOY (N439) U Rispoli B/TT1 Up with early pace, unable to cross and was left racing 3-wide without cover from 1400M, gave ground 400M, tailed off. (Unacceptable Performance.)
