| Settled down in midfield along the fence, driven out 300M but responded only fairly under top weight, no threat from mid-straight. | |||||||
| 9 | GRATEFUL HEART (3) | A Atzeni | 10 | 134 | 1128 | Midfield | 16.0 |
| Jumped awkwardly, settled at the back of the field, failed to run on after straightening. Never involved. (Jockey : raced in a disappointing manner.) | |||||||
| 10 | GIDDY UP (8) | K Teetan | 2 | 123 | 1135 | no history | 4.3 |
| Jumped only fairly, tracked leaders but raced ungenerously throughout the early and middle stages, found disappointingly little in the finish. | |||||||
| 11 | JOLLY RULER (7) | L Hewitson | 3 | 126 | 1182 | no history | 13.0 |
| Bumped after the start, moved up to track leaders, failed to run on passing 300M, soon out of contention. | |||||||
| 12 | GOLDEN DARCI (10) | Y L Chung | 12 | 116 | 1163 | no history | 115.0 |
| From draw 12 caught wide no cover chasing leaders, gave ground early straight, soon weakened to last. | |||||||
