1 | 1 | ABLE PRINCE (CC348) | A Marcus | -- | Showed good speed to lead by 2Ls on fence at 1000 M, 1L clear entering home straight but shot over 2Ls clear at 200 M, ran on strongly. |
2 | 6 | THE ACHIEVER (CB347) | D Whyte | TT | On fence 4Ls off pace in 5th at the 800 M, brushed rail at 600 M and was still almost 4Ls 5th entering straight, ran on well for 2nd but had little hope of catching winner. |
3 | 8 | GRANDWAY SHUTTLE (CB424) | W C Marwing | B | 2-wide and 3Ls off pace in 4th at the 800 M, niggled along to take closer order at the 600 M, 3Ls down and 3-wide off home turn when still 4th, ran on fairly for a place. |
4 | 10 | ENGINEERING WONDER (CB300) | G Schofield | -- | Switched towards inside rail from wide draw on jumping, in 10th place about 8Ls at the 800 M, 6Ls down and travelling well in 8th off home turn, ran on well to be nearest at the finish. |
5 | 2 | SONGS OF THE SUN (CB237) | G Mosse | -- | Couldn't lead and got head up when 2Ls 2nd on fence at 1000 M, 2Ls 3rd entering home straight, always outpaced in home stretch. |
6 | 3 | SNIPPETYIYEA (CB311) | T Mundry | -- | 4-wide and 2Ls off pace in 6th at the 800 M, similarly placed but 4-wide into home straight, never threatened. |
7 | 5 | SIR OCTAVIUS (CB427) | S Dye | -- | On fence 7Ls off pace in 8th at the 800 M, took closer order in midfield on straightening, found nothing under pressure and was very weak final stages. |
8 | 9 | SMILING FOREST (BV286) | K C Tsang | B | 2-wide and 7Ls off pace in 7th at the 800 M, 6Ls down in midfield entering straight, lacked acceleration. |
9 | 11 | EXCITING TIMES (CB169) | F Coetzee | TT | Advanced to be 1L off pace in 2nd out 2-wide at the 800 M and on turning for home, found nothing under pressure, dropped out tamely. (Significant amount of mucus in trachea.) |
10 | 4 | KEV BUSHIDO (BV166) | P H Lo | SR | Caught 3-wide without cover down backstretch when about 7Ls off pace in 9th, never on terms. |
11 | 12 | MOUNT MEDIC (CC170) | J Quinn | -- | Slowly away, in last at least 10Ls off pace at the 800 M, never a factor. |
12 | 7 | EASY GAME (CC346) | H K Yim | -- | Slowly away, always one from rear about 9Ls off the pace through to home straight, never likely to get involved. |
