1 1 SUPER KID (CC305) C Soumillon -- Broke well. Kept rearward. Switched to 5 deep rounding home. Responded strongly whilst hanging in once in the clear. Took lead at 200 M and outpaced others for an easy win.
2 7 LUCKSWELL (CA171) H W Lai B First one out. Ridden early to hold the rail, surrendered the lead at 1700 M. Raced prominently off pace. Never far off the leader. Took the lead after the 250 M. Fought hard to stay on but found winner too good.
3 2 RIVER DANCER (CC109) D Whyte -- Broke well. Raced comfortably on fence making the first turn. At least 4Ls behind leader at 1200 M. Saved ground along rail rounding home. 4th to enter straight. Kept on evenly when clear after 300 M. Lacked an extra kick.
4 4 AGILITY (CC361) C Munce -- Jumped with them. Outpaced early and trailed field on fence. Last to enter straight. Shifted wider on track for better running. Made up late ground to be closest at finish.
5 5 FRUITY FRUITY (CD061) C Brown -- Fair to begin. Settled 2 wide 4Ls off lead around midfield. Similar rounding home. Shifted wide and bumped on straightening. Not a factor thereafter.
6 6 WIND WINNER (CD266) F Coetzee CP/TT Average to begin. Worked to stay 2 wide 3Ls behind pacesetter at 1400 M. Made up little ground on the bend. 3rd to enter straight. Faded shortly after straightening. (Abnormal breathing noise.)
7 3 SATURN (CD154) G Mosse TT Jumped well. Ridden to take lead on rail. Set good pace throughout. Held a 3Ls lead at 1000 M. Found nothing in straight. Failed to keep pace after 300 M and steadily dropped out.
