| 1 | 14 | THUNDEROUS ACTION (BM144) | Y S Wong | -- | Worse than midfield into straight where he ran on well to take charge passing 200 M. Kept on strongly despite drifting out close home. |
| 2 | 2 | FACE THE ODDS (BH230) | M Kinane | -- | Rear till effort home bend. Ran on to reach 2nd 200 M. Found winner too strong. |
