| 3 | 10 | GOLD MARQUIS (G111) | K C Leung | TT1 | Held up in midfield along the 3-path, wide into straight, closed off well in the straight despite laying out under pressure, nearest at the line. Promising debut. |

| 8 | 4 | STORM WARNINGS (D369) | L Ferraris | B-/TT- | Crowded for room at the start, shifted across runners for cover and raced in detached last, responded fairly in the run home and passed tiring rivals only. Never a threat. |

| 12 | 3 | JOYFUL WIN (D451) | M Chadwick | B | Unable to lead from draw 12, caught racing wide no cover in midfield, gave ground on straightening. (Jockey: raced flat, its last run may have taken more out of the horse.) |
