Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 11 | SHADOW KNIGHT (CE154) | E Saint-Martin | B | Well there. Took lead from 850 M. Kept on well in straight and just did enough to hold off the 2nd horse by the narrowest margin. |
| 2 | 9 | YELLOW DIAMOND (CD246) | O Doleuze | V | Midfield about 3-4Ls off the pace. Ran on strongly final 250 M and just failed to get up by the narrowest margin. |
