1 3 MANIFEST (CC048) C W Wong B/TT Made all, narrow advantage on fence for most of backstretch, about 2Ls clear entering homestretch and going well, same margin ahead at 200 M, driven out.
2 12 GLORY YEARS (CE023) C Soumillon B/TT- Better than midfield within 2Ls of the pace until home turn, 1L down at 200 M, kept on finding but never looked like catching the winner.
3 6 FOURSQUARE (CE081) E Saint-Martin SR Checked at start and got back at least 4Ls off pace towards rear until home turn, made some good late headway to take 3rd.
4 10 HARVEST (CD125) H W Lai -- On fence within about 2Ls of the speed better than midfield until home straight, over 2Ls down in 4th at 200 M, one-paced in the finish.
5 8 GALBRAITH (CG022) B Prebble -- Tracked winner out 2-wide a neck down in 2nd until the circle, hung out quite badly and 4-wide on straightening when 2Ls down in 2nd, didn't find a great deal under pressure.
6 9 MILLION CHASE (CD132) G Mosse CP/H In midfield or slightly worse from 3Ls to 4Ls off the speed until home bend, always held by principals.
7 7 GRASS HOPPER (CD050) S Dye CP/TT- Mostly 3-wide without cover, within 1L of the pace in 3rd until the 600 M, 4-wide and 2Ls down in 5th entering home straight, soon faded.
8 5 SOUTHERN LIGHT (CB439) O Doleuze CP In midfield within 2Ls or 3Ls of the leader until the 500 M, forced 5-wide (widest of all) taking home turn when 4Ls behind, failed to redress this margin.
9 2 FUNTRAP (CE243) D Whyte B Hindered at start and lost some ground, behind early but made some ground on fence to be 3Ls back on fence turning for home, never properly on terms, however.
10 11 SMARTY FACE (CE051) H K Yim B/SR Tended to hang in early when worse than midfield, 5Ls off pace towards rear from 600 M to home turn, never competitive.
11 4 CHAMPION WINNER (CB458) C Munce -- Caught very deep on track at least 4 and 5-wide down the back, restrained to be 6Ls last turning for home, never dangerous.
12 1 COMPANION (CA273) W M Lai -- Always deep on the track in or around midfield but mostly with cover, 5Ls down in 10th at 600 M, showed nothing in home straight.
