Danny McMenamin
Donald McCain
Set the pace from the outset - some untidy leaps through the race including a serious blunder at the 2nd - struck the fence 3 out then clipped 2 fences from home - drifted left after the final obstacle - under maximum pressure when passed inside the last 110yds but battled back to claim 2nd
Ben Poste
Archie Watson
Settled second early - dropped back after the 3rd - driven up to join the front group before 3 out - pressed for effort before 2 out - flat out on the run-in claiming third close home - denied second by a whisker at the line
Brian Hughes
Gavin Cromwell
Settled among the pack early before easing back to the tail after the first - urged into action approaching three out - lost touch and needed encouragement after two out - responded after the last and stayed on to snatch fourth close home
Alex Harvey
John C McConnell
Held up handy early - jumped raggedly but moved into second three out - drifted and clipped another runner two out - pressed the pacesetter yet scratchy at the last then found nothing in the tight finish to end fifth
Freddie Gingell
Paul Nicholls
Held up towards the back - closed on the pace 3 out - baulked approaching 2 out - pushed along before the last - found a bit of extra room but faded close home
