1 | 11 | CHATER JADE (BV063) | A Suborics | B | Jumped only fairly, ridden to muster speed, gradually advanced to be within 2Ls off leaders 900 M out. Ran on under pressure in straight to wear down leader 50 M out, stayed on well to fend off challenger. |
2 | 8 | REAL WINNER (CB051) | D Whyte | -- | Jumped well, soon niggled along to hug rail, 2 to 3Ls behind leaders. Switched out upon straightening to launch challenge, made gradual ground final 200 M whilst hanging out, just denied. |
3 | 6 | GRAND FIGHTER (CA225) | G Mosse | B | Jumped smartly, ridden and soon disputing lead 2-wide. Took clear lead after straightening, every chance until overhauled by first pair closing stages. |
4 | 1 | GENERAL KINGY (CB039) | S Dye | -- | Brief lead before easing behind leaders 3-wide. Dropped back a bit going into home bend, under pressure from 500 M and 4Ls off lead turning in, made moderate ground from 200 M, soon one-paced. |
5 | 10 | TRAVELLER STAR (BT232) | S K Sit | P-/TT1 | Bumped at start then checked, shifted to rail at rear, 5 or 6Ls off speed. Advanced to midfield 2-wide rounding home bend. Ran on a bit after 200 M, one-paced close home. |

10 | 7 | DELIGHTFUL SPECIAL (BP147) | K C Tsang | B-/P2 | From widest gate soon dropped to rear never less than 5-wide. Never a factor. (Saddle shifted back in early stages.) |
