1 3 STAR OF FAME (CH043) F Coetzee TT1 Steadied at 1000 M eased right into box-seat trail 2Ls off pace in 3rd or 4th from 800 M to home turn, edged out to challenge 150 M out and ran on well to lead final strides.
2 12 OBVIOUSLY (CG085) K L Chui -- Disputed early lead on fence but over-racing until the 600 M when 1L clear, went about 2Ls clear at 150 M but no extra late and caught final strides.
3 1 DR POSSI (CE288) G Mosse -- Midfield or better about 2Ls or 3Ls off pace until homestretch, ran on quite well for 3rd late but never threatened to quinella.
4 9 GEM MASTER (CG235) E Saint-Martin B1/TT 3-back on fence throughout and about 4Ls off pace early, niggled along at 600 M to keep up, still with 4Ls to make up at 200 M but dashed well late, never nearer.
5 10 NEW TRIUMPH (CG105) B Prebble CP Disputed early lead out 2-wide at 1000 M, settled 1L back in 2nd at 600 M, still about 2Ls down in 2nd at 200 M but faded out of placegetters in final 50 M.
6 8 SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) O Doleuze V1 3-wide with cover in about 8th place and 4Ls off pace until home straight, never threatened to run better than midfield.
7 4 BUDDIES SPIRIT (CD042) D Nikolic -- Awkward break and jockey lucky to stay on, towards rear about 6Ls off pace until home turn, ran on fairly late, never nearer.
8 2 SUPER FIGHTER (CE167) D Whyte V Slowly away, towards rear about 6Ls off pace until home turn, never going to be much better than midfield when checked at 100 M, no danger.
9 6 GOLDEN STRIDE (CA343) M Nunes B/TT Caught 3-wide no cover in 1L off pace early on, slipped back over 2Ls back at final bend, very one-paced in home straight.
10 11 PROFIT HILL (CE274) M Odendaal PC- Always caught 4-wide no cover in midfield about 4Ls off pace until home turn, no surprise that he would fade out.
11 7 REWARDING STAR (CG234) H W Lai -- Awkward break losing ground, 8Ls off pace in rear and under pressure 500 M out, plugged on at same pace.
12 5 SPICY HOT (CH064) S Dye -- No speed and 5-wide no cover in rear early on about 8Ls off pace, about 7Ls behind in last turning for home, never figured.
