2 11 GRAND CRU (CG265) D Beadman V Standard jump, ended up behind midfield on rails 6 to 7Ls away, used little in mid-section, saved ground on bend, made steady progress in straight doing best late to steal 2nd on line.
3 3 REGENCY DRAGON (CH001) F Coetzee B/TT Showed customery pace to drive forward from a wide gate to race on pegs, did share of work setting even tempo, kicked strongly on turning and only lost 2nd place in shadows of post.
4 2 SUPER TRAVELLER (CH275) Z Purton -- Out in line, elected for a trail and raced 5Ls back along rails in midfield, had a soft run but lost position on bend, got going again last 200 M, closed nicely to make frame.
5 6 IMPERIAL APPLAUSE (CG209) M Du Plessis B Restrained from a wide gate, ended up at rear 10Ls away at tail, aided by even sections in mid-section, kept to rails turning and made plenty of progress in straight to be nearest on line.
6 12 FIRST AMONG EQUALS (CC327) Y T Cheng B No pace from outset, in last few 9Ls back in running line, aided by tempo, well back making a 3 wide run on turning in, still in behind horses to 250 M but accelerated nicely when clear to be nearest on line.
7 8 HE CAN TANGO (CG288) K L Chui B Standard jump, took a position behind midfield on fence 6 to 7Ls back in running line, suited by speed in mid-section, improved 3 wide on circle, made a brief dash but run ended at 200 M.

9 4 SKYVIEW BAR (CG024) G Mosse CP- Bounded out, crossed to race outside leader, didn't have easiest time with reasonable sectionals, right there on turning and made bold effort to 200 M but run ended soon after and dropped out after hard run.
10 14 VICTORY STYLE (CG120) S K Sit -- Began well, took a sit off pace 3 to 4Ls back in 2 wide line, ridden along to hold spot on bend, eased out turning but lacked a dash and faded out.
