1 | 9 | RACING SUPERNOVA (V128) | J Moreira | -- | Guided to the rail position, settled in midfield 4Ls off the pace, shifted into clear 300M then powered home for an emphatic win. |
2 | 3 | MR BOGART (V253) | C Schofield | B | Never far off from leader, travelled strongly into contention, quickened to lead 200M, kept on strongly to the line only caught by impressive winner near 50M. |
3 | 1 | BLIZZARD (S398) | Z Purton | -- | Restrained behind midfield, 3-wide much of the way and proved difficult to settle at times, finished well final 300M under top weight, held by first two late stages. |
4 | 12 | APOLLO'S CHOICE (S312) | C Y Ho | B | Chased the pace along fence, held up early straight, shifted out 200M and closed off reasonably well to go 4th before line. |
5 | 7 | WAH MAY FRIEND (T309) | S De Sousa | TT | Pressed forward, in 2nd place chasing leader from 1100M, raced up to challenge early straight, tried hard but not finishing pace of first three, lost 4th before line. |
6 | 11 | SPICY SURE (T234) | S Clipperton | TT | Slow to begin, taken across behind runners from wide barrier, 9th at 400M and 4Ls back, stayed on moderately without threatening. |
7 | 14 | ALMABABY (V057) | H W Lai | TT | Quickly into stride, soon led and set good pace upfront, headed 200M, couldn't sustain run late and lost several placing towards the finish. |
8 | 8 | SUPER LIFELINE (P158) | K Teetan | B | Failed to muster speed, shuffled back to near the rear before home turn, worked home well final 300M but too much ground to make up. |

10 | 13 | EROICO (T009) | M Chadwick | -- | Chased leaders early, checked near 1100M and drifted back to a midfield position, fought on same pace in straight, offered little final 150M, failed to finish off. |
11 | 5 | ALL YOU WISH (P031) | O Bosson | TT | Given a waiting ride in the rear 7-8Ls back, responded only fairly passing 400M, no threat to leaders. |
12 | 2 | CIRCUIT LAND (T219) | N Rawiller | TT | Fractious in stalls, reared as the start was affected and lost many lengths, never got back to contention. |
13 | 4 | TWIN DELIGHT (S125) | B Prebble | TT | Failed to muster speed, settled down in a 2-wide position behind midfield, lacked further response entering straight, soon beaten. |
