1 | 4 | GALLANT MASTER (CJ255) | B Prebble | B | 2-wide about 4Ls back in 7th or 8th through to the 600 M, closer turning for home, responded to strong riding to get up close home. |
2 | 9 | MARBLE RED (CK160) | W C Marwing | -- | Best away and led early on, handed up to box-seat in 3rd on fence from 800 M to lead again 300 M out, grabbed by the winner inside the final strides. |
3 | 7 | MASTER DREAMER (CE293) | C K Tong | B | Settled in 'one-out-one-back' spot in 4th from 1200 M to final turn, had every chance of at least a quinella finish, no extra and all out to hold 3rd. |
4 | 5 | LUCKY TYCOON (CH318) | W M Lai | B | Taken back from wide gate, one from rear 6Ls off pace at 1000 M, a little closer on straightening, stayed on well late and only just missed a place. |
