1 8 TANAHMERAH (CC051) R Fradd V On fence 10Ls off speed and one from rear at the 1100 M, still in 11th when 6Ls behind and forced 6-wide (widest of all), hung right but ran on very strongly to lead final strides.
2 6 PRECIOUS SWEETIE (CB247) H W Lai -- On fence when 1L clear 1200 M out, disputing lead off home turn and marginally ahead at the 200 M, caught by winner final strides.
3 2 THUNDER MAN (CB239) P Payne B Held up 7Ls behind leader in 10th at the 1100 M, 5-wide when 6Ls down and still in 10th entering home straight, ran on well, never nearer.
4 12 SMART WIN (CA372) P H Lo -- 2-wide and 1L down in 2nd at 1100 M, disputing lead entering home straight and a neck 2nd at the 200 M, no extra.
5 3 ARROGANCE (CA177) C Williams B 2-wide and 3Ls behind in 5th at the 1100 M, 2Ls down in 4th off home turn and 2Ls 3rd 200 M out, kept on at same pace.
6 11 EXULTATION (BV223) D Whyte -- Switched to fence from wide gate to 6Ls behind leader in 9th at 1100 M, 2-wide and 5Ls worse than midfield off home turn, tended to hang left when running on without troubling principals.
7 1 SIR OCTAVIUS (CB427) S Dye -- Had a nice run on the fence 2Ls off the speed in 4th or so until home straight, always a bit too one-paced in the finish.
8 7 SPEEDING MOLLY (CC227) J Holder SR Had cover when 3-wide and 4Ls off pace in 8th 1100 M out, over-raced in places, 3-wide into home straight when still 4Ls behind in midfield, always held.
9 9 NEVER HEADED (CB202) W M Lai B/TT 2-wide and 4Ls behind leader in 7th 1100 M out, similarly placed but under pressure off final bend, no impression.
10 4 ZERUBBABEL (CB418) F Coetzee B Sluggish start and raced detached in rear 14Ls behind the leader 1200 M out, never a factor.
11 5 ROMANTIC SYMPHONY (BV150) G Schofield SR/TT In 6th place on fence 1200 M out, under pressure and 5Ls behind towards rear when checked 400 M out, no threat thereafter.
12 10 CAPABEL (CD195) Y T Cheng -- Always 3-wide without cover, 1L down in 3rd from 1200 M to 600 M, lost place on the circle and dropped right out.
