Gipsy Moth headed King Brierly across the top, followed by Killadar, Canopy, Musquil and Kurapae. Gipsy Moth led into the straight from King Brierly, Killadar, Canopy, Musquil and Courthaven, but half-way down the running King Brierly headed "the leader and looked like winning. However, Gijxsy Moth came again and just got up to beat King Brierly by a neck, with Kurapae three lengths away, third. Canopy was fourth, then came First Lap, Killadar, Courthaven, Musquil, Glenhaupo and King Tut. Southerner Takes Hurdles.
