Kenedna continues to race in top form, now winning four of her last six starts. She settled well in ninth place on the rails, before John Allen angled her between runners at the 600m, went deep (under riding) at the home turn, responded to hit the front at the 100m (after veering a bit wider at stages) and then fought back strongly of a very good win. She then survived a protest from the runnerup. Oklahoma Girl settled well back and was last in the 14-horse field coming to the home turn. James Doyle steered her between runners on straightening, then went wide out to make her run. She was hindered when challenging at the 100m but found the winner too strong at the post, to take a very good second. A protest against the winner was dismissed. Perilous Love raced back in tenth place, went widest of all rounding the home turn and kept running on really well to get third in a photo, putting up a good staying effort.
