The players just had time to make their last bets before the start. All horses seemed to be in good shape this day.
Benjamin Rori found a gap and took the lead. Scarlet Wish followed before Zoals Maandag. When the startcar left the field Crossing Nutcracker started to galop and lost 50 m.
Intelligent Sound saw it's chance when the leader lost tempo and took the lead.
No one seem keen on putting pressure on the leader so he could keep his own tempo.
