2 | 5 | MAGNIFICENT (CB390) | B Prebble | B | Head up at start, settled on fence in rear at least 6Ls off pace until home straight, making good headway at 200 M when switched inside at 200 M, kept finding but post came too soon. |
3 | 4 | NICKU NICKU (CC372) | G Mosse | SR | 2-wide towards rear 5Ls or so off the speed until home- stretch, ran on well through the field to take 3rd place close home. |
4 | 11 | LOK WAH TREASURE (CA361) | E Saint-Martin | TT | Slow break, had the run of the race 2Ls off pace on fence between 3rd and 5th place from 1200 M to home turn, 2Ls down in 4th at 200 M, lacked an extra gear. |
5 | 14 | KINGSTON GLORY (CC310) | R Fradd | B | Prominent but quite keen down the backstretch, moved up 3-wide on straightening when a neck down in 3rd taking home turn, led 300 M out but headed at 200 M, tired near line. |
6 | 1 | HAPPY HEROES (CD261) | D Whyte | B | Slow start, 4-back on fence about 4Ls off pace in midfield until home turn, place prospects when over 2Ls down in 5th at 200 M, one-paced. |

8 | 2 | JUST TOO GOOD (CB150) | O Doleuze | V | Slow start but recovered to be 3-back on fence in mid- division at 1000 M, niggled along at 800 M and 2Ls off pace in 5th at home turn, drifted back steadily. |
9 | 12 | SHINING LIGHT (CD119) | S K Sit | B | Never better than midfield, 8Ls last at 1000 M, made some very minor late ground past tired rivals late on. |

12 | 13 | UNIVERSAL GLORY (BV162) | C Munce | B | 2-wide and 1L off pace in 3rd at 1200 M, under pressure at 900 M to maintain prominent position, very weak in stretch. |
13 | 10 | DASH FOR VICTORIES (CB389) | M Rodd | V | 4-wide no cover for much of backstretch when about 6Ls off pace and towards rear, effort when 4Ls down and 5-wide on straightening, soon faded and eased late. |
