| 1 | 9 | SUCCESSOR (CE043) | O Doleuze | PC | Sped across from widest gate to take up running after 200 M, set fast pace in front, had field off the bit and chasing on home turn, kicked strongly in straight and scored impressively. |
| 2 | 13 | POCKET MONEY (CE253) | D Whyte | -- | Average to begin, settled midfield on fence, 4Ls from lead, eased 2 wide approaching turn, held up early in straight, unleashed strong sprint when clear past 200 M but gave winner too much start. Better over longer. |
| 3 | 3 | VIKING TOR (CE207) | B Prebble | -- | Away with them, slotted into good spot 4th 2 wide 2Ls from lead, eased into clear on turn and tried hard throughout straight but was unable to match first two. |
| 4 | 2 | ROYAL DECREE (CE059) | E Saint-Martin | P-/B2/TT- | Bounced well, asked to settle in early stages 5th on fence 3Ls from lead, followed rails throughout, didn't go round a runner in straight and continued to make good ground. |
| 5 | 8 | GUNG HO (CE020) | M Rodd | B | Fastest into stride and showed good pace to cross easily, restrained to take up position behind leader eased out entering straight and responded to hard riding only weakening final 100 M. |
| 6 | 10 | ELEGANT KING PRAWN (CE265) | R Fradd | -- | Away well, caught 3 wide midfield without cover proving difficult to settle, hung out on turn when making 4 wide run, responded to hard riding in straight without threatening winner. |
| 7 | 12 | SAND DANCE (CD022) | G Schofield | -- | Average away, caught 4 wide midfield and settled 3 wide 5Ls from lead, made run 5 wide in straight but covering extra ground took its toll and could not get close enough in straight. |
| 8 | 11 | LUCKY WINNER (CE124) | C Brown | TT1 | Awkward to begin, restrained from awkward gate to settle 4th last 7Ls from lead 2 wide, made run between runners on turn, only got going late to make up good ground. Not fully extended. |
| 9 | 7 | NOBLE MAN (CC099) | W M Lai | -- | Jumped well, settled 2nd outside the leader, travelled at leaders heels throughout, failed to match frontrunners when they sprinted at top of straight, one paced throughout stretch. |
