| 1 | 744462 | Waltzing With Miki | 1 | Ft | Benjamin Butcher | Gutsy effort when run down last week here. Looks a decent place option from ace. | |
| 2 | 313140 | Mick Konstantin | 2 | Ft | Jay Abernethy | Couldn't stick after being taken on in front, 5 Dec. Form terrific prior; needed | |
| 3 | X63224 | Words | 3 | Ft | Andre Poutama | Fought when completing the first 4 a fortnight ago. Nicer alley to use; combos. | |
| 4 | 483341 | Midfrew Lucre | 4 | Ft | Tony Cameron | Gained an overdue win at Camb, 4 Dec. Record solid here but this much harder. | |
| 5 | 537347 | Barbarossa | 5 | Ft | David Butcher | Solid from a wide alley a week ago. Gives his all but lacks the zip of rivals. | |
| 6 | X51931 | Double Parked | 6 | Ft | Tony Herlihy | Won as he liked 2 weeks ago and will be at cramped odds to repeat despite alley. | |
| 7 | 1155X3 | Ultimate Racy Girl | 7 | Ft | Zachary Butcher | Resumed nicely to snare a distant 3rd behind Francent. Include on all multiples. | |
