1 6 MY PRIDE (CG017) D Whyte V In 3rd place on fence through to home straight between 2Ls and 4Ls from the front, dug in well to lead about 50 M out, did just enough.
2 9 BATURO (CH029) O Doleuze -- Mostly 5th on fence between 3Ls and 5Ls from the speed until straightening for home, ran on strongly late for 2nd but post came too soon for the win.
3 8 GANBARIA (CE052) C K Tong B/TT Led by 1L at the 1000 M but headed soon after, about 3Ls back in 2nd at the 500 M, picked up again to lead briefly inside final 100 M but was ran out of the quinella close home.
4 2 CHEEKY LAD (CG198) B Prebble B Went back from the wide gate, 8Ls last turning for home, ran on well along fence, never nearer.
5 10 GOLDEN WIN (CE062) W M Lai B Keen early on and sent on to lead at 800 M, set a fast pace and 3Ls clear at 500 M, weakened and headed 100 M out, tired late and slipped out of a place. (See Racing Incidents.)
6 11 MR FLOODLIGHT (CG257) H W Lai B Towards rear about 6Ls or 7Ls off speed from 800 M to home turn, helped by fast pace to make some good late ground, never nearer.
7 5 ACTIVE VALOUR (CG045) A Delpech V Mostly 4th out 2-wide between 3Ls and 5Ls from the speed until straightening for home, stayed on at the same pace.

9 12 K-JACK (CG233) M Nunes TT1 3-wide with cover in rear about 7Ls or 8Ls off speed until home turn, made some late ground without threatening leaders.
10 1 WHISKY POWER (CH291) M W Leung -- Got back worse than midfield with cover about 6Ls off speed at the 800 M, struggling to make an impression entering home straight, never on terms.
11 4 HORSE POWER (CH079) Z Purton -- Broke badly and always towards rear at least 6Ls or 7Ls off the pace, never dangerous.
12 7 LEADER (CG012) C W Wong SR/TT 3-wide no cover down the backstretch, 5Ls back in 6th at the 800 M, fell further back turning for home, weak in the finish.
