One after another the horses came out on the track for the obigatory parade. After some warmup the horses lined up behind the car as it began to move down the track.
Songer Ruine tried its best to keep the lead but finally had to give in to Less Is Good that came steaming ahead. Less Is Good was to tense at the start and galloped for 40 m.
There were no mayor changes in the field at the 500m mark.
