1 3 RICH DRAGON (CG079) C K Tong V 4th about 3Ls back in fence through to final turn, kept on well to poke his head in front inside final bounds.
2 2 RED RULER (CH198) B Prebble CP 2-wide back in midfield about 4Ls at 1200 M, similarly placed but 3-wide turning in, led for a few strides about 50 M out only to be headed on the line.
3 9 TOWKAY FLYER (CJ036) G Mosse -- Led early on but handed up advantage to sit 1L back in 2nd until the 300 M, briefly led again 150 M out, no extra and missed the quinella final 50 M.
4 7 BUCCANEER (CH214) Z Purton -- Switched inside from wide gate, 6Ls down in rear at halfway, blocked for a run from 250 M to 100 M, kept on well once clear, very unlucky.
5 11 BATURO (CH029) E Wilson B 2-wide and 3Ls down in 3rd at halfway, 1L down in 3rd at 200 M with every chance, failed to capitalize.
6 12 CLASSIC HORSE (CD378) H W Lai -- 4-back on fence between 4Ls and 5Ls from the pace until home straight, didn't find much clear room until inside final furlong, might have been closer.
7 6 MARVELLOUS (CH026) F Coetzee B/TT Squeezed out at start, 6Ls back in 8th in middle stages and in rear off final bend, one-paced thereafter.
8 8 TAKE IT EASY (CJ029) C W Wong -- Worked hard to cross from wide gate and lead by 1L at halfway, headed about 150 M out and dropped away.
9 1 ASIAN CITRUS (CH246) O Doleuze B/TT Raced and 3 and 4-wide without cover when 5Ls off pace down the backstretch and similar turning for home, made no impact.
10 4 BIG KAHUNA (CG177) G Boss B 3-wide with cover in rear at halfway about 5Ls from the front, still in rear when very badly hampered 300 M out, eased out of the race. (Lame next day.)
PU 10 FORTUNE WHEEL (CH018) Y T Cheng TT Raced 3-wide no cover about 4Ls back in midfield until the home straight, broke down 300 M and pulled up.
