1 1 SPLENDID CHAMPION (L041) M Chadwick TT Jumped well. Rolled to the fence and led under slow tempo. Held a 1L advantage turning into home straight. Fought determinedly to the line to repel rivals by narrow margin.
2 5 JOLLY WONGCHOY (CH076) D Whyte TT Out nicely. Elected to sit behind leader on fence. Soon got clear run in the straight. Looked extremely dangerous passing 200 M but was fended off by the leader near the post.
3 12 SUPREME TYCOON (L106) Y T Cheng H Well enough away but trapped wide. Ended up 3-wide without cover behind midfield from first turn. Improved gradually from the Rock and raced 3-wide with leaders turning in. Kept on without threatening the front pair.

5 6 MOSSMAN BLITZ (L366) O Doleuze -- Away in line. Caught wide without cover behind midfield. Allowed to stride forward passing 1300 M and parked one-off behind pace from 1100 M. Challenged the leader home turn. Ran on steadily until no extra near finish.
