1 | 8 | RACING HERO (N157) | Z Purton | B | Positively ridden, crossed to fence before first turn, travelled smoothly behind leader, responded well under a forceful ride, led 150M out, kept on strongly to the line. |
2 | 1 | PERFECT CHEERS (M341) | C Y Ho | B/TT | Began well, steadied to a midfield position making the first turn, moved sweetly into contention 450M, led early straight, not pace of winner final 150M but kept on well under pressure. |
3 | 7 | CHAMPAGNE DAYS (CL024) | W C Marwing | H- | Restrained to a position behind midfield, raced keenly, switched wide 500M, closed off well early straight and looked a chance at 200M, readily held by first two final stages. |
4 | 11 | HAPPY CHA CHA (CK296) | T Queally | B | Soon guided to the fence, raced in midfield throughout, switched wide 550M, not the clearest of runs early straight, stayed on well for 4th. |
5 | 4 | CLASSIC JEWELLERY (M329) | D Whyte | P1 | Caught 3-wide behind midfield and had no cover in the first half of the race, moved closer to leaders inside 600M, vied for lead early straight before fading 150M out. |

7 | 12 | NEW GREENFIELD (M282) | B Prebble | B/XB/TT | Began well enough from draw 1, reserved in a position ahead of midfield, responded only fairly turning in, never a threat to leaders. |
8 | 10 | EURO SWIFTLY (CK091) | T Clark | H/CP/TT | Guided to a rail position after the start, settled 6Ls back near the rear, no clear run early straight, driven out 250M but found little under pressure. |

10 | 5 | PLENTIFUL (CK319) | T Angland | B | Switched off to the rear about 9Ls behind leader, hampered by a beaten runner turning in and had to switch wide for a clear run, not quickened. (Jockey questioned re his riding in the straight.) |

12 | 9 | JOLLY GOOD (CL134) | A Suborics | SR | Held up 2-wide in midfield, had to be pushed along 600M from home but not responding to pressure, ran well below par. |
