| 1 | 6 | WATCH BUDDY (H185) | A Badel | CP1 | Ridden forward to share early pace after moderate start, gained over half a length advantage on rail turning into back straight, kicked some 1L clear on straightening, just held off runner-up's strong late challenge. |
| 2 | 2 | JUNEAU FLASH (H084) | K Teetan | P | Jumped awkwardly losing ground and taken back from 3-wide to share last spot, circled the field around home bend, worked home well down the centre of the track but the post came too soon. |
| 3 | 8 | MELBOURNE HALL (D118) | Y L Chung | B/XB | Jumped fairly settling 3-wide in midfield, made steady headway inside 800 metres to reach 2L 4th 600 metres out and further closer into straight, only produced moderate progress without threatening. |
| 4 | 5 | HARMONY N HOME (C531) | L Hewitson | -- | Jumped well settling some 3L back in 5th on rail, dropped slightly further back briefly at the Rock, saved ground turning for home but unable to quicken under pressure. |
| 5 | 3 | LUCKY ARCHANGEL (E385) | H Bowman | CP/XB | Settled worse than midfield from a wide draw, tight behind runners upon straightening and switched out for a run 200 metres out, produced good late impression. |
| 6 | 9 | ISLAND SURPRISE (E429) | K C Leung | B/TT | With leaders early 3-wide most of the way, came to dispute lead rounding home bend, unable to sustain effort inside final 150 metres after a tough journey. |
