HARBOUR MASTER was crowded for room on jumping between FLYING ELITE and MAJESTIC ANTHEM which shifted out. HELENE SUPER STAR began awkwardly. From wide barriers, FREE JUDGEMENT and GUN PIT were shifted across behind runners in the early stages. Passing the winning post on the first occasion, MAJESTIC ANTHEM was steadied when crowded for room between HYPERSONIC and HARBOUR MASTER which got its head on the side and shifted in away from FLYING ELITE. Also passing the winning post on the first occasion, SMILING WATCH shifted in and bumped CHATER DREAM. Passing the 1400 Metres, GUN PIT was shifted out away from the heels of NOBLE ALPHA. At the 300 Metres, HARBOUR MASTER was bumped on two occasions and taken wider by HYPERSONIC (N Rawiller) which shifted out into clear running. N Rawiller was advised that whilst the Stewards encourage competitive riding, nonetheless he must do so with sufficient care. Approaching the 200 Metres, FANTASTIC KAKA was checked when attempting to run where there was insufficient room between EAGLE POWER and RACING HERO which was giving ground. In the Straight, MAJESTIC ANTHEM lay out under pressure and near the 50 Metres was shifted to the inside of HYPERSONIC to obtain clear running. After this, MAJESTIC ANTHEM was awkwardly placed inside the heels of HYPERSONIC. Throughout the race, HELENE SUPER STAR and RACING HERO travelled wide and without cover. A veterinary inspection of HELENE SUPER STAR, EAGLE POWER and FANTASTIC KAKA immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. GUN PIT and HYPERSONIC were sent for sampling.
