1 9 CRUISE CONTROL (P198) C Y Ho H/P/TT Camped handy, in 5th position on the paint, had cover. Peeled out prior to the home turn and ranged up to have the race in its keeping after the 200m.
2 2 GLORIOUS RYDER (P279) D Whyte B/TT Missed the start, settling worse than midfield. Improved to midfield approaching the home turn and chased gamely down the running.
3 4 CULTURAL CITY (N263) O Doleuze -- Travelled just in advance of midfield, 1 off with cover. Was right in the mix at the furlong but peaked on its effort after the 150m.
4 10 SAFARI MAGIC (N166) K Teetan CP/XB/TT Rolled forward to eventually settle 1 off in the lead. Grudgingly gave way over the final 150m.
5 5 ROCK THE TREE (P272) Z Purton -- Parked 2nd last, 3 deep with cover. Made some late headway in the home straight.
6 6 DRAGON GLORY (P130) A Suborics P-/B2/TT Raced 3rd from the rear, 1 off with cover. Failed to really quicken in the home straight.
7 8 UNIQUE HAPPIEST (S245) C K Tong H-/P1 Eventually settled 1 out 1 back after the 900m. Only plodded to the line.
8 1 GO GO WIN (S073) N Rawiller H Travelled midfield, but was left racing 3 wide without cover near the 900m. Struggled in the home stretch.
9 3 HOLY MAC (N189) C Reith B Not the best away settling last, 3 deep with cover. Failed to close off.
10 7 COSTA DEL SOL (M111) G Mosse B/TT Went forward and settled 2nd on the fence, no cover. Was a spent force before the furlong.
