In a three-way finish, Odyssey Moon recorded a narrow but good win. He was smartly away and settled in second place, outside the leader (Ascendance). He got to the front at the 300m and then fought back gamely under his top weight to score. New Zealand-bred Battlecamp, who was having only his third race start, settled towards the tail of the field before improving (between runners) at the home turn. He angled into clear running at the 400m and then ran on well for a late-closing second, looking suited to further in a promising effort. Bassett had a good trip in fifth place on the rails before getting through to challenge strongly at the 100m. He then battled soundly for a close-up third, albeit after appearing to had every chance.
