1 8 BLUE STITCH (CB031) D Whyte B/TT About 4Ls or 5Ls off the speed and 3-wide down the back straight, 3-wide and 3Ls down entering home straight, quickened up very well to lead hard on the bridle 180 M out, easily.
2 14 TABBRIS (CB088) Y T Cheng B Led by 1L on fence 1400 M out, was 2Ls clear 1200 M out, still 1L to the good turning for home, headed 180 M out, kept on for 2nd place.
3 3 EXPLOSIVE POWER (BV129) P H Lo -- Slowly away, 2-wide and 4Ls off pace 1200 M out, 3Ls down at the 800 M and 2Ls down off home turn, all out to remain within 2Ls of leader at the 200 M, no extra.
4 13 SMART CHIEF (CC042) M Cahill B1 On fence and 5Ls off the speed 1200 M out, 4Ls off pace 800 M out, similarly placed off home turn and 200 M out, made some late headway through concluding stages.
5 9 ETERNAL FUN (BT276) M Walker -- 2 wide and 1L off pace 1400 M out, was never worse than 2Ls off the speed until home straight, every chance of being placed 200 M out, couldn't sustain effort.
6 11 SMART HORSE (BV096) E Saint-Martin -- Had the run of the race on fence 2Ls off pace 1400 M out, 3Ls down 1000 M out, hard ridden to stay with 2Ls of leader from home straight to 200 M marker, weakened.
7 4 PERPETUAL PLEASURE (CB261) B Prebble -- Caught 3-wide without cover when 3Ls or 4Ls off the speed down the back straight, 3-wide into home straight, very one-paced through closing stages.
8 5 EXULTATION (BV223) E Legrix -- On fence 7Ls off the speed 1200 M out, 5Ls down 800 M out, never managed to get any closer than that.
9 2 PRIME VAIN (BV320) D Dunn -- 2-wide and 9Ls 1200 M out, 7Ls down and 3-wide 800 M out, 4-wide into home straight when 6Ls down, never posed any kind of threat.
10 10 EPIC EXPRESSION (CB158) C Williams B Stood flat-footed in gates and lost plenty of ground, 9Ls off pace on fence in rear 800 M out, never got involved.
11 1 GRANDIOSO (CA327) O Doleuze TT 2-wide and 7Ls off the speed 1200 M out, still towards rear and driven along turning for home, no chance.
12 6 OPTIC FRIENDLY (CA252) K H Ting -- Raced 2-wide 5Ls off the pace 1200 M out, 6Ls down and 2-wide entering straight, found nothing.
