The race was won by Shaun Spadah, a 100/9 bet ridden by Dick Rees and trained by George Poole for owner Malcolm McAlpine. The winner was the only horse to complete the course without falling.[1]

In second place was The Bore, who remounted after falling at the second-last fence, having raced alongside the winner since Turkey Buzzard fell at Becher's Brook on the second circuit. All White and Turkey Buzzard were also remounted to finish third and fourth respectively. No other horses completed the race.[1] Thirty-five horses ran and all returned safely to the stables.
