1 5 SURE GAIN (CJ038) W C Marwing H/TT Pressed forward after start and slotted into one-out-one-back from the first turn. Closed off well and powered clear final 100 M for a convincing victory.
2 4 SUPER IDEAL (CC223) G Cheyne TT Raced within 3Ls of the pace on fence through to the home straight. Checked at 200 M but soon regained momentum to prevail in a 3-way finish for 2nd.
3 7 DRAGON BOY (CJ204) O Doleuze B Quickly into stride. Taken to prominent spot 1400 M out. Fought gamely in the straight for 2nd and just nosed out on line.

5 3 RAIN OF THUNDER (CJ352) D Whyte B Travelled 3-wide without cover ahead of midfield until 700 M. 2-wide 4Ls down making the home turn. Good place chance in the straight but peaked final strides to finish out of frame.
