Had a nice run in midfield away from the rail. Moved three wide to improve passing the 600m, was within a length of the lead on straightening, dashed to lead passing 200m & had enough in hand to hold off fast finishing 2nd.

Raced 4th along the rail for the majority. Moved closer to be on the leaders back just before straightening, shifted across heels at the 200m to get clear, closed strongly in final stages to just miss in good debut.

Awkward at start & was taken back to share last place early. Continued rearward in middle stages, eased wider entering last section when 5L from lead before closing off strongly down the outside late to be close behind 3rd.

Raced in midfield away from the rail throughout. Eased wider approaching the 400m mark when 2.5L behind, hung inwards & caused interference at 200m before being straightened up & closing off well late to be close behind.

Raced just worse than midfield away from the rail throughout. Improved to midfield approaching the corner, entered last section just over 4L from lead before closing off well in the dash to the line to only be beaten 2L.

Pushed forward to lead. Headed & passed quickly by the winner at the 200m mark before being passed by rivals late & finishing 6th but only 2L behind on line.

Didn't begin fast but mustered to get position in midfield along the rail. Moved away from the inside entering last section when 3L behind, raced tight mid-straight when not far behind before finishing off moderately late.

Slightly slow to begin & taken back to race third last. Relegated to second last near half-way, moved off rail entering last section when 5.5L behind, shifted outwards in straight & made some late ground without threatening.

Raced just worse than midfield along the rail early before improving to midfield in middle stages. Stayed along inside entering last section when 4.5L from lead, stayed along rail in straight but could only maintain deficit.

Steadied from outside gate & taken back to last. Continued a clear last entering final section when just under 7L from lead, shifted outwards mid-straight was hampered & shifted out passing 200m before not finishing off late.

Was prominent & raced keenly early, before improving position to race outside the leader from the 850m mark. Was ridden along before straightening but was beaten early in the straight & weakened badly late.

Disputed lead early before racing second a length behind before getting position 1,1 from the 800m. Was ridden along on straightening before being badly hampered & checked 200m & effectively being knocked out of contention.
