1 5 MEDIC POWER (CG303) M Chadwick B-/TT Began with more purpose, settled 1L off leader first without cover, tracked well to bend, lengthened nicely final 200 M to collar leader and keep on for a strong win.
2 4 BRILLIANT CHAPTER (CJ100) D Whyte -- Standard jump, ended up 4Ls away on rails in midfield, angled off rails rounding bend, closed nicely final 300 M to take a clear 2nd.
3 2 LUCKY QUALITY (CH134) A Gryder -- Fast out as customary, assumed role as leader, travelled comfortably conserving more energy than usual, kept on to inside 200 M before lost advantage, kept on respectably.
4 9 NIGHTLIGN (CJ145) J Lloyd -- Went back from a wide alley, ended up 4 wide at rear 8Ls off speed, set huge task turning widest and had field to pass, made remarkable headway in straight to make frame.
4 10 MASTER POWER (CG318) J Winks B Positioned in midfield 4 to 5Ls off speed, raced 3 wide with cover in mid-section, had chance when clear running emerged turning and worked home soundly to make frame.
6 13 IRISH JIG (CJ125) Y T Cheng TT Awkwardly away and lost ground, regathered but couldn't slot in, ended up 4 and 5 wide without cover, improved to bend, peaked at 150 M when ran out of gas.
7 12 MY HOME TOWN (CH331) M Du Plessis -- Standard jump, faded back from a wide draw, raced 4 wide behind midfield with cover 5 to 6Ls back, did work to bend, closed evenly without threatening.
8 11 PRIME SCORE (CG280) B Prebble -- Showed enough pace to hold 1 out 1 back spot 2 to 3Ls back, shifted 3 wide without cover on circle, kept improving turning, place chance to 200 M before run ended.
9 8 WILLING STORM (CJ187) D Beadman H Began in line, worked forward but raced 4 wide without cover in midfield, did share of work to bend, 3Ls down turn, faded before 250 M mark.
10 6 FRIENDLY GAINS (CG300) Z Purton -- Amongst first to break, took up a prominent role racing behind leader, had every chance to bend, on worst going towards inside but didn't close final 200 M.
11 3 GALLANT LION (CG243) C K Tong H Out with rest, faded back to settle behind midfield 6 or more lengths back in running line, still had plenty to do turning, made minor progress without looking likely.
12 7 RIVER JORDAN (CG194) C W Wong -- Fair to begin, dropped to rear about 8Ls off speed, always well back, switched out turning, came down outside but didn't make much progress.
13 1 SUNNY POWER (CG203) K C Leung -- Faded to muster, settled 7Ls away in rear division, still well back to bend, switched near to outside rail, couldn't make impression late.
