Favourite Talaria was not the fastest out of the gates however in two strides she flew into the lead from barrier six and had a handy advantage within the first 100m. Two lengths clear at the 800m and at the 600m, the lead shrunk turning in but rider Mark Du Plessis had not asked the question. Once balanced, the filly then cruised clear and looked to be in for an easy win. Du Plessis rode her hands and heels but there was a late challenge yet they gamely clung on by a head at the finish.

Oscar Eight sat second last (rails) around the corner, hugged the fence upon straightening and really got going over the last 200m, finishing strongly but a shade too late for a very good second.

Nothin' On Me was third before they straightened, moved out into the middle of the track passing the 200m and ran on best of the rest for a distant third.
