JK First Lady, the 8-5 favourite leaving from the pylon post, sat third before pulling off the pegs passing a :26.3 first quarter. Into the backstretch JK First Lady overtook command from Rocknificent, taking the field past the half in :55.2.

Lyons Sentinel, parked from the start, advanced uncovered tracked by Reflect With Me moving to the final turn. Past three-quarters in 1:23, Lyons Sentinel continued to pressure JK First Lady into the stretch until the favourite folded into the final eighth. Lyons Sentinel held a short-lived lead as driver Andrew McCarthy kicked Reflect With Me off cover and swept to the lead with a sixteenth to go, winning by over a length. Lyons Sentinel held second from Rocknificent closing for third and Priceless taking fourth.
