Danza Lad over-raced in the early stages, racing in fourth position one out one back. He lost his position approaching the home turn, being shuffled back to third last. Staying closer to the inside he cut the corner and came back on the bridle, moving up to taking the lead at the 250m before staying on too strongly to score.

Duffers Creek raced on the back of the winner in sixth position two off the fence. He made a move wide out on the track approaching the home turn and stayed on gamely to be closest on the line.
