1 | 5 | LUCKY PARADISE (CB441) | F Coetzee | -- | 2-wide and 3Ls off the pace 1000 M out, travelled well 2-wide and 2Ls down entering straight, led at the 200 M marker, driven out and drew clear. |
2 | 1 | BORN DRAGON (BS215) | C Williams | B- | Settled towards rear early on, 2-wide and 5Ls down 800 M out, 4Ls down entering straight, ran on strongly to be nearest at the finish. |
3 | 2 | HONOUR SUPREME (CB393) | E Legrix | P2 | Disputed lead on the fence from gates until home straight, headed by winner 200 M out, one-paced through concluding stages and lost 2nd place on the line. |
4 | 3 | EVER MORE (CB130) | O Doleuze | B | Raced 2-wide 1L off the pace 800 M out, steadied when short of room 700 M out, 3Ls down and under pressure of the home turn, kept on okay in the straight. |
5 | 12 | SUPER SPRINT (CA274) | A Marcus | SR | Disputed early lead out 3-wide, 2-wide and still right there entering home straight, began to fade about 200 M out, no extra. |
6 | 9 | BRAVE KNIGHT (CC131) | R Fradd | TT | Caught 3 and 4-wide down the back straight when about 4Ls off the pace, 3Ls down entering straight and with place chances 200 M out when 2Ls down, didn't come on. |
7 | 7 | BLUE STITCH (CB031) | D Whyte | B/TT | Knuckled exiting gates, about 4Ls off the pace and 3-wide down the back straight, staying on well and very dangerous when 1L off the pace 250 M out, didn't follow through. |
8 | 6 | SONGS OF THE SUN (CB237) | M Kinane | TT | Awkwardly away, disputed early lead out 4-wide, 3-wide and 2Ls off the pace entering the straight, outpaced from 300 M out. |
9 | 8 | BOND (BT065) | E Saint-Martin | SR | On fence about 4Ls or 5Ls off the pace from back through to home straight, was always a bit too one-paced. (Lame.) |
10 | 10 | PROFIT DAY (BV335) | W M Lai | -- | Fractious in the gates, very awkwardly away and missed the start by about 4Ls, in rear wide and about 6Ls or 7Ls off the pace until home straight, never a factor. |
11 | 11 | HUANGDI (BV154) | Y T Cheng | -- | 3-wide down the back straight about 7Ls off the pace, at least 5-wide 600 M out, in rear and struggling entering straight, no chance. |
12 | 4 | LUCKY TRIO (CB199) | S Dye | -- | Always hung out, very awkward round the turns, never competitive. |
