1 2 SANZIRO (CE208) G Boss B/XB/TT Patiently handled, 8Ls last at 800 M and edged a little closer off home turn, burst through a gap 100 M out and led final strides.
2 12 LUCKY HERO (CH135) Z Purton -- Disputing the pace but 3-wide no cover early on, vying for the lead until the 200 M, gave everything as usual but headed by the winner close home.
3 3 COUNTRY MUSIC (CD035) K L Chui XB/TT Nicely placed in 4th on fence about 2Ls off speed until the 600 M, ran on well in the straight to take 3rd on the line.
4 8 MAVERICK STAR (CE279) F Coetzee -- Yet another game effort, mid-division about 4Ls down early on, headway tuning for home, stayed on well, only just missed a place.
5 4 TCHAIKOVSKY (CE030) B Prebble B Best away and shared the lead on the fence from 1000 M to home turn and then 200 M out, tipped out of a place inside final bounds.
6 6 ULTRA FANTASY (CG311) M Nunes B 2-wide and 1L back in 3rd early on and same turning for home, had his chance to place but tired final 100 M.
7 9 ELEGANT WIN (CG297) O Doleuze B One from rear about 7Ls from the early pace, 4-wide and 4Ls off speed turning for home, stayed on fairly well without troubling principals.
8 1 KING ENCOSTA (CG247) E Saint-Martin TT Went back, 5-wide but with cover about 6Ls from the pace 900 M, 6-wide (widest of all) making final turn, nearest at finish.
9 11 LUCKY WINNER (CE124) A Delpech TT On fence midfield or better no worse than 3Ls from the speed early, hung out at halfway, never dangerous in homestretch.
10 10 MASTER POWER (CG318) D Beadman B Slowest out, towards rear about 6Ls from early tempo and 5Ls down into home straight, shifted out into the clear 200 M out but never likely.
11 5 DEFERENTIAL (CH328) D Whyte B Midfield about 3Ls or 4Ls from the front until the 600 M, 3-wide on straightening, thereabouts when checked 100 M out, eased down thereafter.
12 13 BULB KING (CD303) S K Sit -- 3-wide with cover 3Ls down in 5th at 800 M, no cover on the circle but closer turning in, still close up when checked 100 M out, eased down late.
13 7 DOWN THE WICKET (CH059) G Mosse B/TT1 Over-raced on fence when worse than midfield about 4Ls from the speed at halfway, left behind in the straight and eased final 200 M.
14 14 SUGAR ON TOP (CG274) W M Lai B Hard to much wider without cover, 4 and 5-wide no cover until the 600 M and 5-wide turning in, soon dropped off, eased final 200 M.
