2 7 EASY WINNER (CL138) T H So B Not mustered despite ridden along early stages, at the rear for most of the way, ran on well from 300M to claim 2nd near line but no impression on the runaway winner.
3 10 MAJESTIC FALCON (M236) D Beadman H/XB Taken keen hold in a position behind midfield, angled out to clear 350M, stayed on to take 3rd near line but no chance with the winner.
4 3 FULFIL A WISH (CL235) B Prebble -- Bagged inside rail and raced close up with leaders, checked 1000M and switched to 2-wide making the turn, had clear run from 350M, battled on well but never going the pace to challenge the winner.
5 5 BULLISH CHAMPION (M198) G Mosse TT Emerged as leader from 1200M, set steady pace, led to near 200M, ran out of steam late stages and was swamped near line.
6 11 TREASURE GOLD (M233) J Lloyd B Settled in mid-division along the inside, short of room turning into straight, found daylight up the inside 300M out, stayed on without threatening.
7 1 AMIGO (CK358) K C Ng -- Crossed to track leader, raced a shade keen middle stages, kept on a the same pace when the race got serious, gave way final 100M.
