1 1 CLEAR CHOICE (A426) Z Purton B/TT Prominent early, good position 3 wide with cover in midfield. Moved wider when travelling strongly nearing corner, sprinted fast to assume lead at 350m before dashing clear. Had enough in hand to hold fast finishing second.
2 3 BEST ALLIANCE (C284) A Badel XB Crowded on jumping, consequently raced worse than midfield. Moved wider & improved approaching corner. Checked & lost ground on straightening, shifted out, finished very strongly in closing stages to just miss. Unlucky.

7 5 STARLIT KNIGHT (A137) S De Sousa -- Not fast to begin & consequently shifted back to second last away from rail. Continued rearward, 6 lengths from lead entering final section. Passed a few in the late stages but was still beaten a substantial margin.
8 8 CALIFORNIA LEGEND (B363) K H Chan TT Ridden forward after start, crossing to rail when leading passing the 1300m. Maintained 1.8L margin entering final section before peaking on effort, headed at the 350m before weakening significantly thereafter.
9 7 GOOD FIT (S131) K Teetan PC/TT Had no early speed, ridden up to maintain position throughout. Stayed close to the inside rail on cornering when only 4L from the lead before weakening out to be beaten over 10L.
