4 | 7 | SPINNING CITY (CB252) | G Mosse | B | On fence about 5Ls or 6Ls off pace until 700 M out when badly checked and unbalanced, 4Ls down at top of home straight, stayed on well but never really looked like winning. |
5 | 3 | DESERT STORM (CA048) | O Doleuze | TT | Awkwardly away, settled in rear about 7Ls or 8Ls off the pace until being checked 700 M out, 6Ls behind lead on the swing, finished off quite well, never nearer. |

7 | 11 | NEVER SAY NEVER (BT028) | K T Yeung | SR/TT | 2-wide and 4Ls off the pace 1000 M out, 3Ls behind turning for home, just over 2Ls down and with place prospects 200 M out, no extra. |
8 | 4 | SENSIBLE WAY (CA175) | G Schofield | SR | Bounded exiting gates, 3-wide and 2Ls off the speed 1100 M out, still 3-wide but 3Ls down off final bend, one-paced thereafter. |
9 | 14 | GOOD HEART (CC026) | S Dye | -- | On fence 4Ls off the speed in midfield 1000 M out, similarly placed when driven along to take closer order 500 M out, could never get to leaders. |
10 | 2 | OPERA MAGIC (CB404) | M Cahill | B | Fractious in the gates, had the run of the race on fence 2Ls off the pace 1100 M out, 2-wide and 1L off the pace 400 M out, lacked acceleration. |
11 | 1 | ARMONDO (CB387) | B Prebble | B | Slowly away and crowded at the start, 2-wide and 4Ls off the speed 1000 M out, 4-wide into home straight, 3Ls down 200 M out, faded through closing stages. |
