1 | 1 | SIR LAGO (CH268) | B Prebble | B | Slow to begin then was ridden along with the whip to camp midfield, 1 off with cover. Swung wide rounding the final turn and lifted well to hard riding to hold an advantage. |
2 | 4 | DECENT FELLOW (CH021) | Y T Cheng | B2/H/TT | Failed to go the early speed of the race despite being ridden along, settling in 2nd last position. Was last at the 500 M, rallied strongly under heavy pressure to close off nicely along the inside. |
3 | 10 | NOBLE TWINS (CH257) | W M Lai | B | Enjoyed the run of the race behind the leader on the fence, no excuses. |
4 | 7 | SURE GAIN (CJ038) | W C Marwing | -- | Tightened on jumping, settling in last position. Made a sweeping run around the field after the 600 M, making good ground in the run to the wire. |
5 | 8 | ALL FOR ONE (CH180) | J Winks | -- | Crowded at the start but by the 1200 M was able to drop in to race 1 out 1 back. Peeled out turning for home, had every chance. |
6 | 3 | JOYFUL YEARS (CG143) | G Mosse | -- | Travelled midfield the fence. Rolled out rounding the home turn, plodded to the post. |

9 | 6 | SAMMY'S FORTUNE (CH204) | B Doyle | TT | Was prominent early, but after being caught wide without cover, was taken back to settle towards the rear, 1 off with cover. Went to the post one paced. |
10 | 12 | SUPER POWER (CH117) | K L Chui | TT | Raced midfield, 2 deep with cover. Didn't run on. |
