1 13 THE ONE (CG319) W C Marwing B Niggled along in 6th with cover about 4Ls off pace at 800 M, 4-wide and 3Ls back in 5th off final bend, knuckled down well to lead 100 M out, gamely.
2 7 LAMBRO (CH083) D Whyte B1 Nicely placed in 5th about 2Ls off speed and 2-wide until home turn, led over 200 M out but overhauled by winner 100 M out and no response late.
3 5 BIG KAHUNA (CG177) O Doleuze B Box-seat position in 4th about 2Ls off pace until straightening for home, given every chance to reach the quinella but always about a neck short.
4 10 ELEGANCE LUCKY (CH051) B Prebble XB Slightly worse than midfield with cover about 5Ls from the lead until home turn, made some nice late ground to be nearest at the finish.
5 1 LIVERBIRD (CE055) E Saint-Martin B In rear at least 8Ls behind leaders through to home turn, ran on strongly, never nearer.
6 6 HAPPY GO LAGO (CE310) K L Chui B2/TT On fence in midfield about 4Ls or 5Ls back until the 600 M, hung in a little entering stretch, 2Ls down in 4th with place prospects at 200 M but couldn't follow through.
7 4 PICTURE PERFECT (CD297) S K Sit B Disputed the lead out 3-wide without cover down backstretch, led by a neck at top of homestretch but headed about 250 M out, faded thereafter.
8 11 PRIDEOFTHEORIENT (CH171) D Nikolic -- Went back from wide gate, 7Ls down in 10th or so at 1000 M, a little closer turning for home, never likely to improve much further.
9 14 THAT'S WIN (CG015) W M Lai -- Midfield with cover about 4Ls or 5Ls off pace until home turn, soon outpaced.
10 12 NOT QUITE PERFECT (CG254) S Dye TT Disputing pace out 2-wide at 1200 M, ridden along to lie up at 800 M and same turning for home when over 1L back in 4th, soon gave ground.
11 9 ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) Y T Cheng -- Slow to begin and failed to muster early speed, 9Ls last at 1000 M, never on terms.
12 3 THE ONLY ONE (CB383) C K Tong B Fractious in gates, 3-wide with cover about 6Ls back in 10th or so early on, left without cover on the circle and 5-wide (widest of all) turning for home, dropped right out.
13 8 GALAXY DANCER (CH179) P H Lo B Always towards rear, about 8Ls behind at 800 M, further back turning for home, poor effort. (Heart irregularity.)
14 2 LOLLIPOP (CH006) D Beadman B1/H/TT Disputed early lead on fence, headed at top of home straight, faded right out. (Bled.)
