1 14 SUPREME WIN (CK204) B Prebble -- Jumped well, soon crossed and shared lead, acted well on this soft going and quickened nicely clear 400 M out, kept on strongly to the line and went beyond recall.
2 9 MARK UP (CK247) D Whyte -- Broke well from the inside draw and enjoyed a smooth run along the fence, close enough on turning, ran on determinedly inside 400 M but couldn't match the winner's acceleration on this soft going.
3 10 NEW LEADER (CK242) J Lloyd B1 Settled well in a 3-wide position in midfield, showed a good attitude and picked up well on straightening, edged right under pressure inside 100 M but still ran on.
4 11 PENGLAI XIANZI (CK248) M Chadwick TT Away with them, gradually moved up to a prominent position tracking the leaders, couldn't show a turn of foot on this soft going and plugged on for 4th.
5 6 FUN RIDER (CK231) W C Marwing -- Ordinary jump, towards the rear early but took closer order in midfield before making the turn, taken wide near 350 M for a clear run and closed off the race reasonably.
6 5 LEGEND EXPRESS (CK224) C K Tong B Vigorously driven forward after the start but was hampered near 1200 M, ended up in midfield 3Ls back, found less than expected and remained one-paced in the finish.
7 7 HEALTHY BLUEBERRY (CK222) Y T Cheng -- Recovered from a slow start and settled in midfield 4Ls back, appeared to have every chance down the inside but had no more to give 200 M from home.
8 8 JUST CHILL (CK221) S K Sit TT In the middle of the front rank disputing the lead, hung out inside 400 M, gradually weakened and didn't see out the final 100 M.
9 4 SUPER PEPPER (CK244) C W Wong -- Prominent early, steadied near 800 M and shuffled back to midfield, tracked only fairly and couldn't find anything when pressed in straight. Dropped out close home.
10 1 BE GRATEFUL (CK194) A Gryder -- Went forward on jumping from a wide barrier and raced 3-wide outside the lead, gave ground rapidly from 400 M.
11 2 CRIMSON LUCK (CK234) K C Leung -- Well enough away, gradually dropped back to last before the home turn, had 9Ls to make up passing 400 M but couldn't pick up at all on this yielding surface.
12 13 SOLITAIRE (CK167) W Pike CP-/B1 Ended up in the rear after a sluggish start, had to be shaken up approaching 800 M, soon beaten coming off the bend.
13 3 NEW KID IN TOWN (CK195) M Du Plessis B Towards the rear 7Ls behind, lacked pace and was under serious pressure to stay in touch over the turn, never a factor.
14 12 ROMANCING TAMAR (CK176) J Winks CP In midfield early but struggled to keep up from 800 M, eased down. (Unacceptable performance.)
