1 | 11 | VICTOR DELIGHT (M121) | W C Marwing | TT | Held up 2-wide in midfield, picked up really well passing 300M and produced a powerful finish to lead close home. |
2 | 3 | SAME WORLD (N098) | B Prebble | H/SR | Tracked leader in a steadily run race, swiftly took over 250M, kept on well under a strong ride and looked likely to win, caught by a fast finisher near the line. |
3 | 9 | BEAUTY TOUCH (N001) | M Chadwick | H/TT | Dropped back, travelled well in a rearward position, took time to get going turning in, strong late run final 150M. |
4 | 8 | FINEZZA (M035) | T Clark | B/XB | Outside of last pair, 6Ls off the pace in middle stages, taken wide to challenge nearing 400M, stayed on well for 4th. |
5 | 2 | MR BOND (M098) | T Queally | -- | Settled in midfield along the inside, kept on steadily over final 300M for a non-threatening 5th. |
6 | 1 | FUN RIDER (CK231) | C Lemaire | B | Switched off to last, patiently ridden, driven 300M, closed off reasonably well but no threat to leaders. |
7 | 7 | WITHINMYHEART (M176) | H W Lai | -- | Never far off leaders in a steadily run race, well placed to strike turning for home but could not close in on leaders, kept on same pace final 200M. |
8 | 5 | ENABLING (M229) | D Whyte | B | Soon in front, set steady pace and appeared to be travelling well in middle stages, found less than expected when put to pressure, weakened rapidly final 100M. |
9 | 10 | GENKI TWINS (N223) | N Callan | XB/TT1 | Close up behind leaders, saved ground along the fence, had every chance passing 300M, no extra and outpaced inside 150M. |
10 | 4 | BANKSTERS BONUS (N113) | G Mosse | SR | Settled 2-wide towards the rear, driven 350M but failed to pick up. |
11 | 12 | PERCY JACKSON (N188) | R Fourie | -- | Caught racing 3-wide in midfield, outpaced nearing 400M, soon behind. |
12 | 6 | SATIRICAL BOY (N439) | U Rispoli | B/TT1 | Up with early pace, unable to cross and was left racing 3-wide without cover from 1400M, gave ground 400M, tailed off. (Unacceptable Performance.) |
