1 | 7 | WIND WINNER (CD266) | R Fradd | -- | 8Ls off pace and 4-wide without cover in 12th at 1200 M, 3-wide without cover when 5Ls down in 7th, 5-wide into home straight but quickened up well to lead 300 M out, pulled clear, big effort. |
2 | 4 | SPRINTER (CA067) | A Marcus | B | 6Ls off pace in 8th when 2-wide at 1200 M, 6Ls down in 7th at 800 M, 4-wide into home straight when still in midfield about 3Ls behind, no chance with winner but ran on well for 2nd. |
3 | 6 | LUCKY PORT (CD086) | D Whyte | TT- | Keen 1400 M out, 2-wide when 4Ls behind in 6th at 1200 M, 5Ls down in 5th at 800 M, 4-wide into home straight when about 1L down in 4th, 2Ls down in 2nd at 400 M, no extra. |
4 | 12 | FOREVER WIN (CC069) | C Williams | B | On fence about 4Ls behind in 5th at 1200 M, 5Ls behind in 6th at the 800 M, 3Ls down in midfield off home turn, kept on well without seriously troubling principals. |
5 | 8 | AHEAD A HEAD (CB092) | S Dye | -- | Brief lead on fence at 1400 M, soon headed and 2Ls down in 2nd at 800 M, led again at top of home straight but headed about 300 M out and faded steadily. |
6 | 1 | HALO KING PRAWN (CB124) | J Holder | P/H | In midfield about 6Ls behind the speed down in backstretch, about 4Ls down in midfield off home turn, always well held from that point on. |
7 | 5 | TRAVEL LEADER (CD226) | A Delpech | V-/SR1 | 3-wide without cover when about 3Ls down in 4th at 1200 M, 2-wide and 4Ls down in 4th at 800 M, head up and hung out turning for home when 1L down in 3rd, faded out. |
8 | 2 | CHAMP DRAGON (CB278) | P Payne | B | Slowest away, about 11Ls last on fence at 1200 M, about 5Ls down in 11th at top of home straight, no impression. |
9 | 9 | DONGGUAN VICTORY (CB382) | B Prebble | -- | About 8Ls off pace in 9th on fence at 1200 M, much closer about 5Ls off pace off home turn but short of room until 350 M out, found very little once clear. |
10 | 13 | GOLD FIELD (CC096) | H W Lai | B | Awkwardly away, 2-wide and 2Ls down in 3rd at 1200 M, about 3Ls down in 3rd at 800 M, hard pressed to maintain prominent spot on turning for home, faded out. |
11 | 10 | ONLY YOU (CD210) | D Dunn | TT1 | 10Ls off the speed when 2-wide in 13th at 1200 M, 7Ls last off home turn when 4-wide, never a factor. |
12 | 3 | RAIN IN SPRING (CC320) | T Mundry | -- | Had cover when 3-wide and 8Ls off the pace in 11th at 1200 M marker, 5-wide into home straight when about 6Ls down in 13th place, no threat. |
13 | 11 | DIAMOND MOON (CB019) | W Woods | -- | 2-wide and 8Ls off the pace in 10th at 1200 M out, 5-wide into home straight when about 5Ls down in 12th place, very one-paced thereafter. (Lame.) |
14 | 14 | NOBLE WIND (CD175) | M W Leung | SR-/B1/TT | Pressed on to lead by half a length out 2-wide at 1200 M, 2Ls clear at 800 M, under pressure when headed at top of home straight, faded right out. |
