1 | 9 | MONEY STRONG (CC369) | D Holland | SR | Led on fence 1300 M out, clear by 1L or 2Ls until 400 M when kicked for home, still 2Ls ahead at 200 M, driven out, hung on comfortably. |
2 | 4 | BEST GIFT (CD296) | C Soumillon | TT1 | Fractious in gates, awkwardly away, 7Ls off pace in 7th at 1100 M, 5Ls down in mid-division from 800 M to 400 M, hung in when 4-wide into stretch, ran on well but never likely to catch winner. |
3 | 11 | CHEERFUL HEART (CC206) | A Delpech | B | Three back the fence 4Ls or 5Ls off pace in 6th from 1100 M to home straight, made some decent late ground to secure a place close home. |

5 | 1 | KONRAD THE GREAT (CB059) | G Mosse | SR | On fence 9Ls off pace in 8th at 1100 M, 6Ls down in 8th on straightening, made some moderate late headway. |
6 | 3 | GOLD FIELD (CC096) | W Woods | -- | Settled 11Ls off pace when 2-wide in 11th at 1200 M, improved out 3-wide from 500 M and entered straight out 6-deep (widest of all) when 6Ls down in 10th, ran on fairly to be nearest at the finish. |
7 | 2 | TANAHMERAH (CC051) | R Fradd | V | 10Ls behind leader in 10th on fence at 1100 M, 8Ls down at 800 M, 5-wide into home straight when 7Ls down in 9th, closed off a little bit late. |

10 | 7 | SUNRISE RAINBOW (CD209) | E Saint-Martin | SR | Away well and had the run of the race about 2Ls or 3Ls off pace on fence in 3rd from 1100 M to 500 M, under pressure to lie up on straightening, dropped out tamely. (Mucus.) |
11 | 12 | SPEEDING MOLLY (CC227) | C Williams | SR | 4Ls behind when 2-wide in 5th at 1100 M, much the same off final bend, dropped out rapidly. |
