1 4 MORE BOUNTIFUL (CJ094) D Whyte -- Out in line, a little wide early before slotting in 4Ls away behind pace, always going sweetly to bend, made run turning and overhauled back inside 200 M for another strong run.
2 9 BERIO (CJ202) B Prebble B-/XB Began with them, rolled forward to race outside leader when a bit keen, travelled well with steady tempo, hit front at 300 M, showed fight but couldn't hold winner late.
3 14 YOUNG ELITE (CJ349) F Coetzee -- Slowly away, ended up in midfield, just worked 6Ls back and raced 3 wide with trail to bend, closed well despite hanging to finish an encouraging 3rd.
4 12 SUPERNOVA (CJ032) E Saint-Martin SR Standard jump, positioned just worse than midfield in 2 wide line, tracked well on bend, made good ground to 200 M before steadied, kept coming again when clear to make frame.
5 10 GOOD PARTNER (CE221) O Doleuze XB Average getaway, ended up 5Ls away in running line, improved 3 wide on bend, made fair progress to 200 M before run ended.
6 2 SAFETY FIRST (CG161) W C Marwing B/TT Began well enough, took a prominent spot behind leader 2Ls back, aided by steady pace, had chance when near enough on bend, emptied at 200 M.
7 6 STILTON (CG173) C Soumillon CP Out with rest, allowed to drift back to race in rear division 7Ls away 2 wide, had a fair run to bend, closed well from an impossible spot turning.
8 1 LEGEND OF COLOUR (CK003) C Brown B Ordinary jump, ended up, back with last few, unsuited by steady early pace, still well down turning, made some reasonable headway without threatening.
9 3 STOLEN THUNDER (CJ003) Z Purton -- Taken back from a wide gate, raced away with rearward division on fence 7Ls away, used little in run but pace against, still had job to do turning, made only average progress.
10 8 WIN AGAIN (CD371) G Mosse B/SR Bounced into a prominent spot, raced 2 to 3Ls back behind pace pair, raced too keenly with steady pace, found little turning and faded out in straight.
11 5 ABLE DRAGON (CJ308) K T Yeung -- No early pace and bumped soon after, taken back to rear to race 10Ls away on rails, switched out rounding bend, passed a few tired horses late.
12 11 CRYSTAL (CE209) G Gomez B Fastest out, took up running, set steady pace in front, raced 1/2L clear throughout, still held a narrow lead turning, weakened rapidly from 250 M.
13 13 DASHING THUNDER (CD080) Y T Cheng -- No early pace, ended up 6Ls away on fence, had a soft trip throughout, saved ground on bend, produced a one paced finish late.
14 7 TRIUMPHANT DIAMOND (CG227) D Oliver CP2 No early speed, ended up 8Ls back on fence, gave away a big start and pace not too suit, didn't settle in mid-section, rearward turning and never improved.
