2 11 AIPODER IMAGE (CJ031) Y T Cheng B Taken back to a position behind midfield, caught 3-wide without cover from 800 M, delivered a strong finish inside 300 M to be closest on the line.
3 7 OSCAR PRINCE (CJ052) W M Lai -- 2-wide behind midfield 4-5Ls back, into clear 300 M and closed off the race well despite being carried in over the concluding stages.
4 4 HONEST TREASURE (CE200) K C Leung B/H/TT Quickly crossed to the rail from a wide barrier, settled in 5th 3Ls behind the leader, held every chance turning in but couldn't muster sufficient pace to challenge the principals.
5 9 GENIUS MASTER (CJ117) C K Tong SR Handily placed in a position better than midfield and not far off the pace, stayed on inside 300 M without posing serious threat.
6 1 SUPER IDEAL (CC223) J Lloyd TT Taken back early and travelled in 2nd last throughout, taken wide for a run in the home straight, made some headway from the rear but inclined to hang in and was difficult to ride.
7 6 ZERO GRAVITY (CH037) M Chadwick TT Rolled forward and led them from 1200 M, set a steady tempo up front, was taken on making the home turn, kept on before weakening rapidly inside 100 M.
8 12 SIMPLY THE BEST (CE014) M W Leung CP- Shifted in for a rail position after the start, raced towards the rear 6-7Ls off the steady pace, kept to the inside and ran on fairly in the run home.
9 2 SURE GAIN (CJ038) P H Lo H/TT Urged along to maintain his position after the jump, settled in midfield 5-6Ls behind leader, shifted wide in straight to obtain run but responded only fairly.
10 3 LITTLE BIG BOY (CJ012) W C Marwing CP/TT Obtained a run along the fence in mid-division, 5Ls down inside 400 M but didn't respond to riding. Soundly beaten.
11 10 NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) M Du Plessis V Prominently placed in 3rd after cutting out the early running, remained one pace early in straight and found no extra inside 200 M.
12 8 BAUHINIA (CD118) A Gryder PC-/B2 Began awkwardly and lost ground, ended up racing in the rear over 10Ls back, had plenty to do turning in but never picked up from off the pace.
