| 1 | 6 | DOMINEER (P366) | Z Purton | H | Jumped with field, ridden along early to hold fence behind leader. Temporarily pocketed turning for home, switched off fence 300m for clear running and powered home for smart win. |
| 2 | 2 | TOUR DE FORCE (N297) | J Moreira | B | Began well but eased back towards the rear in one-off position. Took closer order passing 500m, taken wide into straight, finished strongly. |
| 3 | 4 | EXCITING DREAM (P191) | D Whyte | CP | Crowded out start, ridden along to hold midfield position, tightened and unbalanced 600m. Got inside run in straight and finished off nicely. |
| 4 | 1 | FREDERICK ENGELS (N187) | N Rawiller | TT | Crowded out start, no pace, dropping to rear. Got close to heels turning for home. Took inside run in straight, tightened 100m, kept on well. |
| 5 | 3 | BULLISH FRIEND (N333) | N Callan | H/TT | Began awkwardly, ridden along to hold forward position 3-back from leader. Ran on steadily in straight though raced tight passing 100m. |
| 6 | 10 | SMART MAN (P103) | K Teetan | B/H/XB/TT | Lifted leg at start and lost ground, dropping to last pair but away from fence. Last into straight, taken out for clear running but only one-paced. |
| 7 | 8 | BEST ELEVEN (N016) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Began OK, settling behind midfield along fence. Stayed on fence around turn but one-paced in straight. |
| 8 | 5 | SUPER JOCKEY (P195) | M Demuro | -- | Crowded out start, ridden to obtain forward position, struck heels and blundered 1000m, allowed to roll forward to share lead from 550m. Still in contention 200m before fading. |
| 9 | 9 | HAPPY YEAH YEAH (M085) | M L Yeung | V | Pressed forward racing 3-wide first turn before settling one-off, one-back. Hung out badly home turn, very wide in straight, not properly tested. Racing behaviour unacceptable. |
