1 | 5 | HAPPY AGILITY (T184) | K Teetan | V/TT | Eased up early to be handily placed 6th, 3L off the leader. Had to be worked all the way down the straight before nosing in front at 200m. Pushed all the way home, and just held off the late challenger. |
2 | 1 | BIG BANG BONG (V186) | B Prebble | -- | Began well, and then eased early to sit midfield. Ran solidly in the straight, before beginning a run at 200m. Strong to the line and catching winner, but just missed late. |
3 | 13 | G-ONE LOVER (T427) | H T Mo | B/TT | Pushed hard early, and eventually assumed the lead at 1000m. Battled hard before losing the lead at 200m. Stayed on OK, but peaked late and just held off fast finishers for 3rd. |
4 | 2 | JOLLY CONVERGENCE (V293) | N Callan | B/TT | Eased forward from the wide draw to sit forward of midfield. Came wider on the turn, and ran strongly under the stick late. |
5 | 14 | IMPERIAL GALLANTRY (T028) | K C Leung | B/H/TT | Bumped on jumping, and then dropped back from the wide draw to sit last. Battled on well down the extreme outside in the straight, and finished last 150m strongly. |

7 | 3 | SPICY SURE (T234) | C Schofield | XB/TT | Taken up early to be well placed 4th/5th on the fence. Held up early in the straight, but had clear run from 300m and only plugged away 1 paced to the line. |

11 | 9 | MISTER MONTE (A201) | N Rawiller | B1 | Cruised out early, and settled towards the rear of the field. Travelled keenly early/mid race and became unbalanced 1000m. Plugged away late under minimal urging. |
