1 3 LEGEND EXPRESS (CK224) H W Lai B Tracked leader along the inside, moved out to a striking position turning for home, rallied strongly between horses to hit the front 150M from home. Won with something in hand.
2 2 FLYING SUPREME (CK226) B Doyle CP-/B1 Up with the pace and travelled one out one back from leader, driven passing 450M, stayed on to finish clear 2nd best but couldn't match strides with the winner.
3 6 FUN RIDER (CK231) Z Purton B Raced in last pair and proved difficult to settle at times, took time to gather in straight but stayed on well final 200M to take 3rd on the line.
4 1 SUPER PEPPER (CK244) W C Marwing -- Set steady tempo and enjoyed an easy lead throughout, driven out 350M, kept on well under top weight and was only headed inside 150M.
5 4 PENGLAI XIANZI (CK248) W M Lai TT Held up 2-wide in midfield and within 2Ls of leader turning for home, had his chance but couldn't get close to the first two.
6 8 REDOUTE STAR (CK245) K L Chui B/TT Not hurried in early stages, 4-5Ls back in last making the home turn, switched wide with his challenge but found very little in the drive home.
7 5 JUST CHILL (CK221) G Cheyne TT Towards the rear in 5th but always in touch, couldn't quicken when asked inside 400M and remained at the same pace to the line.
