| 2 | 5 | SAFARI MAGIC (N166) | B Prebble | CP/XB/TT | Ridden from the one draw before settling in midfield or just worse on rails, saved ground turning for home, angled out for a run 200 metres out, finished off well to fail narrowly. |
| 3 | 3 | LAUGHING LORD (T071) | N Callan | TT | Travelled in midfield and 3-wide down back straight, came to challenge under pressure from top of home bend, fought on under hard driving from 2L 4th to hit the front briefly over 100 metres out. |

| 5 | 6 | FLYING MACHINE (T413) | J Moreira | SR/TT | Taken back from a wide gate to travel wide in midfield, moved closer up far side to be just over 2L off the pace in 4th, circled the field around home bend to reach 2nd into straight, had no more to give inside the final 100 metres. |
| 6 | 1 | SILVER GATSBY (T161) | C Y Ho | CP2/TT | Ridden early, settled in forward of midfield far side, hampered & lost position home bend, behind midfield in 9th and wide into straight, good effort after straightening but unable to sustain run closing stages. |
