Rain won the "A" class of the handicap for all ponies, in the record breaking time of 2.19.1 which was disallowed as he was carrying four pounds under weight for inches. The field was sent off to a good start and Night Express immediately set the pace. He was never allowed to get away too fa and was closely followed by Benlomond and Rain who trailed him by a length.
Mou Tan Hua and Magic Eve could not not keep up the fast pace and were left out of the running early in the race. Night Express: Benlomond and Rain entered the home straight abreast, Gram scored his first win. on Port Bradda in the first race when he carried about four fifths of the money and cantered home a length and a half ahead of Night Raider. Picolo, Spotted Sand and Milkylight led until the last quarter where the field caught up, and the moment the straight was entered Port Bradda spurted and passed Milkylight and was never headed.
