1 9 SUPER (CD036) M Du Plessis SR/XB 3-back on rails about 5Ls off speed in 6th at halfway, gradually edged closer and hard ridden to lead about 30 M out, did enough.
2 3 DILIGENT II (CJ211) C Soumillon XB In 8th about 6Ls or 7Ls from the pace until home turn, 5Ls down off last turn, briefly held up at 200 M, ran on well late to nick 2nd in final strides.
3 14 VILLAGE KID (CK018) T H So -- Worse than midfield on rails down backstretch, a little closer on straightening, ran on through the field to take 3rd on the line.
4 4 SEA PRINCE (CJ245) G Mosse TT Pressed forward from wide gate to race 1L back in 2nd down the back, narrow lead about 150 M out but no extra and tipped out of the money final 30 M.
5 13 GALLANT MASTER (CJ255) C K Tong -- Slowest away, 8Ls down on the rails at halfway, still rearward and with 6Ls to make up off final bend, finished off pretty well, never nearer.
6 1 DANABAA (CH007) K C Leung B/TT- Darted over very quickly to rails from wide gate, led by 1L until final turn, headed just inside the 200 M and weakened out of the money final 100 M.
7 12 WIN MORE (CH243) J Victoire B/H/TT Box-seated on rails 2Ls back in 3rd through to final 400 M, had his chance to place but was lacking in acceleration.
8 11 KING OF SHAVER (CH041) M L Yeung B 3-back along the rails in 4th about 3Ls or 4Ls from the speed, couldn't take advantage of the soft trail, one-paced.
9 6 BEST NOODLE (CJ278) M Chadwick TT 5Ls off speed out 2-wide at 1000 M, 3-wide no cover on the circle and 4Ls back off last turn, never likely to improve significantly.
10 2 MAJESTIC HEART (CH319) B Prebble V Slow to begin once again, held up in rear 8Ls behind early pace and 6Ls down and pressured turning in, offered little or no threat.
11 7 LIVERBIRD (CE055) H W Lai B 12Ls last at the 1000 M, wide and 8Ls back off last turn, made only very minor late ground.
12 8 COOL RUNNINGS (CK014) D Whyte -- Always in rear bunch and between 6Ls and 8Ls from the pace until home bend, made no impression.
13 10 CHAMPION PIONEER (CG305) S K Sit B Trapped 3-wide no cover throughout, rearward and 8Ls back at 1000 M, 6Ls down making final turn and wide, soon beaten.
14 5 DASH (CG236) W M Lai B- 4Ls down in 5th out 2-wide at 1200 M, hard pressed to remain this close off last turn, steadily faded out and eased down.
