WITHINMYHEART shifted out at the start and bumped EMPEROR CLAUDIUS. BUSINESS AS USUAL began awkwardly and shortly after the start became unbalanced when bumped by FORTUNE RED PEPPER which shifted in after beginning awkwardly. After this, BUSINESS AS USUAL was ridden along to improve its position and passing the winning post on the first occasion was steadied when momentarily crowded for room between WITHINMYHEART and HOT SHOT, both of which shifted ground. After the 1100 Metres, BUSINESS AS USUAL got its head up when proving difficult to settle. Near the 600 Metres, WITHINMYHEART and BUSINESS AS USUAL bumped. At the entrance to the Straight, FUN RIDER shifted out to obtain clear running and in doing so bumped FLYING SUPREME. After the race, O Doleuze reported that WINNING EDGE did not show a similar turn of foot that it did at its most recent start and then hung in in the Straight, resulting in the horse being difficult to ride out. A veterinary inspection of BUSINESS AS USUAL and WINNING EDGE after the race did not show any significant findings. WINNING EDGE, EMPEROR CLAUDIUS and HOT SHOT were sent for sampling.
