3 | 5 | ENCHANTED (CE065) | O Doleuze | SR-/TT1 | Began well, took a more prominent role behind leader, had reasonable run once pace slackened, still right there turning, took a run at 200 M and made good ground late to take place. |

5 | 7 | GILDED FLIGHT (CH294) | K T Yeung | -- | No early pace and was taken back from a wide gate, ended up 3 wide at rear 6Ls from top end, not helped when pace backed off on circle, made many lengths from rear in straight to finish a strong 5th. |
6 | 2 | EIGHT PLUS NINE (CH259) | B Prebble | CP | Began well, took up ideal spot 1 out 1 back 2Ls away tracked well on bend, angled into clear at 400 M, got to within a length but just closed at the same pace thereafter. |

8 | 10 | WINBO (CJ085) | D Whyte | -- | Allowed to drift back from a wide gate, ended up 5Ls back, raced 3 wide with cover throghout, tracked into race on bend, made solid ground from impossible spot to be nearest on line. |

10 | 8 | MARIACHI (CH190) | G Boss | SR/TT | Out in line, positioned in a midfield spot 4Ls away in running line, travelled well throughout, in traffic on turning but unable to lift a gear from 300 M and just held ground late when conditions gave out. |
11 | 14 | TREASURE COLT (CE308) | C W Wong | -- | Showed usual pace to take up running set a reasonable early pace before backing off on bend, held a narrow lead on turning, there to 200 M but faded thereafter when early work. |
