| 2 | 3 | WONDER KIT (G455) | Z Purton | CP | Began well and up with early leaders, reigned back to race ahead of midfield, loomed 250M, kept on steadily to line, not finishing pace of winner late. |
| 3 | 2 | GRATEFUL HEART (D278) | H Bentley | CP/TT | Towards the rear, saved ground along the inside, finished off the race moderately, held by first 2 late stages. |
| 4 | 6 | CAPITAL DELIGHT (H262) | H Bowman | TT | Slow to begin, reserved at the rear, 7Ls to make up 400M, ran on well to claim 4th. |
| 5 | 7 | BEAUTY GLORY (E459) | Y L Chung | H/CP1/TT | Tracked leaders, kept on same pace turning home, always held by leaders. |

| 10 | 4 | O'LINER (H264) | L Ferraris | P/TT | Crowded for room at the start, unable to hold a forward position as a result, caught wide and moved closer to leaders home turn, no extra 200M. (Mucus) |
