1 | 9 | VICTORY MASTER (M148) | W C Marwing | B/XB1 | Went forward but unable to slot in, posted 3 wide outside leaders without cover, steady tempo helped and crept into picture turning, kept finding final 300m to score a solid win. |
2 | 14 | LUCKY FOREVER (M058) | T H So | B | Went forward from a wide alley to camp outside the leader, travelled well to turn, went to front but unable to hold off winner late, solid after long layoff. |
3 | 4 | BEAUTY LEAD (N209) | M Chadwick | SR-/TT1 | Took up a prime position 1 out 1 back, had everything go right to bend, tracked into race well but lacked extra to contest finish with top pair. |

7 | 5 | IT HAS TO BE YOU (N356) | D Whyte | -- | Pressed on from a wide gate to take up running, even run in front once there, tackled soon after straightening, didn't find a lot at business end and drifted out on contention final 200m. |
