1 3 VANQUISH DELIGHT (CJ257) W C Marwing H Soon led by 1L on fence, same margin clear while setting a steady pace through to last turn, kicked clear, stayed on well.
2 12 OCTAGONAL CANYON (CJ055) J Lloyd -- 2-wide in 8th about 5Ls off pace at halfway, same position turning for home, stayed on well enough for 2nd.
3 2 VISIONARIO (CJ095) D Whyte CP Taken back to race in 9th on rails about 6Ls from speed passing post for first time, ran on best of the rest in the straight for 2nd.
4 6 WONG'S FAVOURITE (CG131) Y T Cheng B Enjoyed the box-seat trail in 3rd on the rails 2Ls behind leader right until straightening, given every chance, could only get 4th.
5 11 LUCKY MONEY STAR (CH273) S K Sit -- Nicely placed in 'one-out-one-back' 2Ls off pace in 4th out 2-wide, niggled along despite soft trail down back straight, one-paced in final section.
6 10 LOHAN (CH279) D Beadman B/XB One from rear about 7Ls off pace from start to the last turn, one-paced to conclude.
7 9 SAMBUOYANT (CE172) W M Lai B 3-back the rails about 3Ls off pace in 5th through to final turn when pressured to keep up, plodding conclusion.
8 7 ROCKALOT (CH163) Z Purton B/TT 4-back on the rails in 7th at the 1200 M, same position about 5Ls down turning for home, tight for room until the 100 M but appeared held in any case.
9 4 ZEPHYRUS (CH285) K C Leung B/TT 5Ls back in 6th out 2-wide at the 1200 M, hung out when 3-wide no cover off last turn when 4Ls down, didn't find much off the bit.
10 1 ABLE DRAGON (CJ308) B Prebble -- Never really got involved, in 10th about 6Ls behind early pace, much the same entering home straight, soon beaten.
11 5 BATURO (CH029) T H So -- Disputed early pace, 1L back in 2nd from 1400 M to final straight, weakened out quite tamely.
12 8 ROYAL PORTRAIT (CJ092) H W Lai -- In last throughout at least 6Ls from the pace, never a factor.
