| 1 | 1 | THE RUNNER (D042) | Z Purton | V | Had a nice run on the leaders back. Moved over the heels of the leading pair on straightening, moved to the lead near the 100m mark & had enough in hand to hold off late closer to win by half length. |
| 2 | 10 | SPEEDY CHARIOT (H193) | M Dee | SR1 | About 1L slow to begin & was ridden along to muster before getting position worse than midfield along rail. Stayed along the inside on straightening before closing strongly to move to 2nd at 100m & beaten only half-length. |

| 5 | 9 | CHEER FOR SOUTH (H178) | K Teetan | SR1 | Showed early speed to dispute the lead before steadying after first bend & racing outside the leader thereafter. Moved to the lead near the 225m before being joined by winner approaching 100m before weakening a length late. |
