1 5 YOUNG TALENT (N202) Z Purton B/TT1 Not the best away settling last close to the fence with cover. Sought runs through the field near the 200 and really motored home to snatch victory in the last stride.
2 11 NOBODY BUT YOU (M202) M L Yeung B Settled fifth, one of the fence, with cover. Looked to have the race in its keeping 100m out but was nailed close to home.
3 7 MR AWARD (M065) N Callan TT Raced midfield. 1 off with cover. Kept finding something all the way down the running. (Blood in trachea)

6 2 SURFER BOY (CL306) K C Ng -- Eventually worked its way to cross and lead along the fence passing the 600m. faded quickly after the furlong.
7 6 PURE FORCE (M298) U Rispoli B/H Taken back from the outside gate and settled with the backmakers, 3 deep got some cover on the circle. Shifted out to be widest in the home straight, finished off one paced.
8 1 APOLLO CAVALIER (N262) D Whyte H Forced to do plenty of work to cross and race outside the leader near the 600m. was a spent force in the homes stretch.
9 3 JACK'S GEM (N331) T Angland -- Slow to begin settling back in the field, 1 off with cover. Failed to close off.
10 10 GOAL AND GOLD (N229) T Clark P/TT Settled along the paint, back in the field with cover. Hampered after the 600m, and was never in the hunt.
11 4 SOLAR UP (CK065) C Y Ho -- Settled 3 back the fence. Had to be severely checked near the 500m, clipped heels & blundered. Never recovered.
12 8 MULTIEXPRESS (P029) M Chadwick TT Handed up & box seated passing the 600m. Was badly hampered when the pace steadied and never really got it the race thereafter.
