Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 10 | SWEET ORANGE (M289) | W C Marwing | TT | Standard jump, hunted up to hold leaders back, always travelled in mid section, in clear from 300m and showed good turn of foot to dash clear and score well. |
2 | 4 | ADORATION (M214) | D Whyte | B | Angled into spot behind pace, 4Ls or so away in midfield, no excuses in mid section, came home well once clear in straight but no match for winner late. |
3 | 8 | PERFECT GEAR (CL014) | C Y Ho | -- | Posted 3 wide from a wide alley, 3Ls or so back working with speed on, kept giving despite workload and maintained effort in straight to take a creditable 3rd. |
4 | 1 | MILITARY MOVE (M077) | D Beadman | H/XB | Settled in midfield 5ls or so away in 2 wide line, reasonable trip to bend, kept coming final 500m but didn't have extra final furlong to take a place. |
