1 4 BIG PROFIT (CJ169) B Prebble B Bounced out, rolled forward to share lead under a steady tempo, cruised into last 400 M, drew clear and had the race won 200 M out, eased to the line.
2 1 HANNAH KING PRAWN (CJ178) E Saint-Martin TT Away in line, moved up along the rail and settled prominently behind leader, tracked well to turn, all out inside 400 M but unable to close the gap on leader.
3 9 GREEN GLORY (CJ177) W C Marwing B/TT1 Average jump, travelled behind midfield 3Ls off the pace, into clear 400 M out, ran on OK but never threatened the winner.
4 5 BIG WINNER AGAIN (CJ170) Y T Cheng TT Began with rest, drifted back to settle towards the rear 5Ls behind leader, made some headway down the centre of track, just missed out on 3rd.
5 7 FOREST STAR (CJ167) K L Chui TT Moderate jump, travelled close enough to the pace just behind leading group, well covered to turn, peeled out to challenge inside 400 M but lacked finishing burst, weakened 100 M out.
6 6 BRAVE SPIRIT (CJ258) D Beadman CP1/TT Well enough away, pressed on for the lead initially but eased off near 1000 M to sit behind leaders 3 off the fence, gave limited response on straightening, never likely.
7 2 FAST GO (CJ181) Z Purton CP-/B1/XB2/TT- Standard break, lacked early speed and had to be urged, moved closer approaching home turn, angled out into clear 350 M, found little when asked.
8 8 VANQUISH DELIGHT (CJ257) W M Lai H Taken forward to share lead on the outside at a steady pace, under pressure on turning, unable to sprint with them on straightening, weakened from 200 M.
9 3 STAR OF CHIU TON (CJ175) H W Lai B/TT Ordinary jump, failed to muster speed and was shuffled back to last, hard pressed on turning, faded out of contention early in straight, tailed-off.
