1 1 QUALITY-QUALITY (CE250) B Prebble -- On fence 6Ls off pace in 10th at the 1000 M, similarly unpromising position off final bend, weaved his way through the field to lead inside final strides.
2 7 SAMBUOYANT (CE172) Y T Cheng B A neck off pace in 2nd out 2-wide at 1200 M, marginal lead at the 200 M but foiled by winner inside final strides.
3 12 PRIMIATA (CG226) D Whyte B/TT Darted inside from widest gate to race 5Ls back in 8th at the 1200 M, same turning for home, produced a strong run inside final 200 M, only just missed.
4 4 VINTAGE GOLD (CG094) D Nikolic CP Soon led on fence, clear by about a neck until the home turn, barely headed about 200 M out, stuck on late at the same pace and just missed a place.
5 9 GLORIOUS RHYTHM (CC163) F Coetzee V Had the run of the race on fence about 2Ls off speed in 3rd until the home turn, failed to quicken up sufficiently.
6 3 KAISER'S CHOIX (CE305) G Mosse B/XB Blew the start and forced to go 4-back on fence about 5Ls off speed in 7th at the 1200 M, no better off on straightening, steadied inside final 50 M but was held in any case.
7 8 WAIT FOR ME (CE332) M Nunes -- 3-wide no cover in 9th place about 5Ls off speed at 1000 M, in 8th off home turn when 5-wide (widest of all), ran on fairly, never nearer.
8 2 SOLDIER ON (CD230) H W Lai B 3-back on fence about 4Ls behind lead in 6th at 1000 M, over 3Ls down in 5th off home turn, plugged on at just the one pace.
9 5 AWESOME DRAGON (CG210) C W Wong -- Held the one-out-one-back position about 2Ls off pace out 2-wide in 4th until home turn, very one-paced in the stretch.
10 11 BRIGHT AND GAY (CE048) M W Leung B Soon struggling in rear about 8Ls last, never on terms and a very poor effort.
11 10 VALUE CHOICE (CG213) O Doleuze B- Awkward break, in 5th about 4Ls off speed out 2-wide at 1000 M, lost ground on the circle and 4-wide and over 4Ls down in 6th at final bend, petered out.
12 6 SUPER BALL (CD064) S Dye B Never going well, without cover early on about 7Ls behind in 11th, struggling a long way out and eased down from top of home straight.
