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.
Wimpy Crystal took the lead after a very quick start. Wimpy Crystal was to tense at the start and galloped for 20 m.
Ticking Sun saw it's chance when the leader lost tempo and took the lead. New Trend was disturbed and galoped 10 m.
Calzado looked tired after 1000m but had to keep up the tempo so that Goodnight Fellas couldn't come out from behind the leader, Ticking Sun.
