8 | 3 | PLANET RULER (CB359) | G Mosse | -- | Began nicely, raced behind them in midfield on stand side, raced 2 to 3Ls from them drifting close to rails, threatened at 300 M but couldn't go up a gear, inconvenienced late but race was over by that point. |
9 | 14 | ABLE CHOICE (CB126) | H W Lai | B/TT | Jumped with them, held midfield spot on stand side, raced 3 to 4Ls away, lost ground when bumped at 300 M, hard ridden to make run from that point but could only hold ground to line. |
10 | 6 | MY CHOICE (CC283) | C W Wong | -- | Standard to leave gates, raced 4Ls away on inside, stuck to rails in mid-section, under pressure when sprint went on at 400 M, couldn't find last furlong and held ground to line. |
11 | 4 | COUNTRY MUSIC (CD035) | M Nunes | TT | Slow to begin, remained hard against stand side rail, raced 4 to 5Ls from them in mid-section, hard ridden passing 400 M, kept there but unable to go up a notch to threaten. |
12 | 2 | BILLET EXPRESS (CD140) | F Coetzee | -- | Began with line, raced on inside 3 to 4Ls from leader, level with eventual winner but urged along at mid-point, didn't respond and was 1 paced last furlong. |
13 | 13 | SILVER SUN (CE126) | W M Lai | -- | Average to leave gates, checked shortly after, always struggling at rear of field, hard ridden from mid-point, offered nothing in run home. Found trip too short. |
