1 9 GOOD LUCK WIN (CK004) H W Lai XB Broke well, took unhurried second behind clear leader, driven into lead mid-straight, held on well.
2 8 SUPER GENKI (CH195) M Chadwick B/TT Fair break, held up near rear, improved approaching straight, challenged along inside rail, finished strongly.
3 1 GRAND PROFIT (CK412) T H So TT Jumped smartly, took third on rail, pulled out to challenge early in straight, kept on but no real burst of speed.
4 10 SUPERNOVA (CJ032) Z Purton SR Unhurried start, held up in second last one wide, improved approaching home turn, ran on strongly but never able to challenge.
5 5 HAPPY TUMBLER (CL048) B Prebble -- Slight stumble just after start, travelled in fifth on rail, improved to challenging position straight, no extra last 100 M.
6 7 THE GOODIES (CH097) G Cheyne H-/B Good break, slightly checked when trying to take position after 200 M, raced in sixth twelve lengths behind clear leader, closed on outside in straight, but not quite quick enough to get involved.
7 4 MAN IN THE MIRROR (CH058) D Whyte -- Decent break but dropped back last, not hurried, improved approaching home turn, path blocked and lost some momentum early in straight, ran on well.
8 12 ABLE DRAGON (CJ308) A Gryder B/TT1 Broke quite well but little early pace, midfield on rail seeming to race in snatches, close enough if good enough early in straight, found very little.
9 11 WARM EMBRACES (CJ162) O Doleuze -- Reasonable start, urged far side, wide and driven into straight, fair finish but never near enough to challenge.
10 3 JUGGERNAUT (CJ019) G Mosse B2/TT Blasted out from wide draw, ridden for lead, four lengths clear down far side, still two clear early in straight, folded.
11 6 CHAMPION LAD (CH042) W C Marwing XB/TT Moderate break, raced in fourth one wide, back to fifth early in straight, lost ground all the way to the line.
12 2 GALAXY TREASURE (CK220) K C Leung TT Broke quite well but four wide into first turn, never got near rail, tried to improve far side but still wide, ridden, dropped away.
