1 | 1 | EVERGREEN (CE106) | W M Lai | TT | Caught wide early before pressing on to race 2-wide and 4Ls off pace in 3rd at 1300 M, 3Ls down in 3rd entering homestretch, led inside final 50 M. |
2 | 8 | ONE EYE JACK (CD393) | G Mosse | B | Positively ridden 4Ls clear 1200 M out, still 2Ls ahead and kicking for home before final bend, 1L clear and all out at 200 M, headed inside final 50 M but hung onto quinella berth. |
3 | 10 | G-ONE LEADING (CE306) | D Nikolic | -- | On fence 4Ls back in 2nd at 1200 M, about 2Ls down and driven along to keep tabs on leader into home straight, every chance when 1L down in 2nd at 200 M but lost quinella final strides. |
4 | 9 | GRABBIT (CG144) | B Prebble | B | 2-wide and worse than midfield about 8Ls off pace at 1200 M, only marginally closer and hard ridden when 4-wide (widest of all) swinging for home, kept on dourly, nearest at finish. |
5 | 3 | KING HOGAN (CE257) | A Starke | B | Nicely placed in 5th with cover about 5Ls off pace from 1000 M to until home turn, didn't find too much off the bridle and hung in late. |
6 | 4 | ALL OUR WAY (CE217) | E Saint-Martin | -- | 3-back on fence in 4th from 1000 M to home turn when about 5Ls off the pace, one-paced and did not threaten to place. |
7 | 12 | FEBURO (CE203) | F Coetzee | B | Never any better than midfield, about 8Ls off pace towards rear early, 7Ls down in 8th making home turn, plugged on to retrieve some minor late ground. |
8 | 6 | BROWN BEAUTY (CC029) | O Doleuze | CP | Always in rear and at least 8Ls off the speed until straightening for home, moderate late headway but never once a serious contender. |
9 | 11 | SPEED OF LIGHT (CC333) | H W Lai | TT | 4-back on fence in midfield about 6Ls or 7Ls off the lead through to home turn, made no real impression in the finish. |
10 | 5 | WONG'S FAVOURITE (CG131) | Y T Cheng | SR/V | In rear bunch on fence until home straight while at least 7Ls or 8Ls from the speed, plodded on at same pace. |
11 | 2 | HARRY HARRY (CD019) | D Whyte | XB | Always caught 3-wide no cover, about 7Ls off pace around midfield at 1200 M, 6Ls back in 6th entering home straight, run soon fizzled out. |
12 | 7 | FLAMING SUN (CG164) | M Nunes | B/TT | Slowly away and in last throughout, about 12Ls last at 1200 M, 10Ls last and struggling entering stretch, stayed there. |
