1 2 LUCKY WITH YOU (E356) L Ferraris -- Jumped well, restrained to race behind midfield, travelled well into straight 3Ls to make up, quickened up impressively to lead near 150M, won going away.
2 6 COPARTNER PRANCE (H408) J Orman XB Went forward soon taking up the running, led slowly before quickening things up 450M, kept going well to the line, headed 150M but held 2nd comfortably.
3 7 DROMBEG BANNER (H117) K Teetan -- Bumped after the start, sent forward tracking the pace, fought hard on straightening but not finding extra pace to challenge leader, hard driven to hold 3rd late.
4 4 MUGEN (H338) P N Wong -- Jumped only fairly, ended up a long way back in last, 6Ls to make up 400M, took time to pick up before doing best work late to claim a non-threatening 4th.
5 1 INVINCIBLE SAGE (H301) H Bowman CP Jumped well from draw 1, chased leaders in 3rd, loomed a threat top of straight but finished the race off in a one-paced manner under top weight.
6 3 MAGIC CONTROL (J333) M Chadwick P/TT From wide draw taken back to a rearward spot 5Ls back, made some progress early straight but run ended 100M from home. (Jockey:did not run out a strong 1200M.)
7 5 TAJ DRAGON (H164) B Avdulla -- Unhurried after the jump, gradually improved to midfield, ran on only fairly final 400M. Never a threat to leaders. (No Vet findings.)
8 8 WHIZZ KID (E392) H Bentley V/TT Up with early pace before sitting back to track leaders, not quickened when asked passing 400M, out of contention mid-straight.
