| 1 | 5 | MASTER GIGOLO (CC375) | M Rodd | TT | Always about 3Ls or so off pace and 2-wide in midfield until home straight, picked up well to lead 150 M out and stayed on strongly. |
| 2 | 11 | THE KING (CD384) | C Williams | TT | Within 1L of the speed and with cover until entering home straight 3-wide, led 250 M out, grabbed by winner about 150 M out but still ran on well. |
| 3 | 6 | GOLCONDA (CA111) | A Delpech | SR | Best away and led on fence 1500 M out, never more than 1L clear and disputing advantage at 800 M, headed 250 M out but plugged on well for a place. |
| 4 | 4 | PRETTY TRIO (CB343) | B Prebble | SR | Had the run of the race on fence 2Ls off pace in 4th until home straight when with every chance, failed to quicken up and one-paced final 200 M. (Blood in trachea.) |
| 5 | 9 | ROYAL ARMY (CB103) | C K Tong | V | Always tended to hang out from fence, worse than midfield about 4Ls behind lead through to home straight, made some minor late progress without threatening principals. |

| 8 | 1 | BEST LUCK (CC062) | O Doleuze | TT | Awkward jump and slowest away, crossed to rail from wide gate, keen early and 6Ls off pace in rear at 1000 M, over 4Ls down in rear on straightening, soon outpaced. |
| 9 | 10 | KING OF WIN (CD395) | G Schofield | B | Pressed on 3-wide without cover early on, gained cover from 1000 M and 1L down and 2-wide turning for home, quickly faded. |
