1 10 COSMO SUCCESSOR (CH118) Y T Cheng B Raced 4-wide at midfield before driven to sit one-off behind the pace home turn. Rallied on to challenge the lead in the straight and dominated final 100M.
2 12 GLENEALY VIKING (CK174) M Du Plessis -- Quickly into stride. Elected to sit 2-wide ahead of midfield from 800M. Well positioned to strike in the straight. Closed off well without troubling the winner.
3 6 MISTER HORSE (CL035) D Whyte B Jumped fairly but soon urged to race at midfield on fence. Swung 3-wide and was 3Ls down into final stretch. Progressed steadily but no real threat to the front pair. Just held 3rd at post.
4 8 DARPANA (CK256) J Lloyd B/TT Caught wide after standard jump. Gradually taken to 4-wide at rear. Took inside run and was 6Ls off leaving the bend. Finished off satisfactorily until bumped 50M.
5 3 KARBRIDGE (CK251) B Prebble B-/P1/TT Began well but was trapped wide. Crossed to fence and led home turn. Headed passing 200M and weakened final stages.
6 1 GLOBAL WIN (CG109) M L Yeung B/TT Prominent spot through to home straight. Just held ground thereafter.
7 7 VINSANTO (CL059) Z Purton CP1 Bounded in the air at start and lost ground. Restrained to stay 2-wide toward rear from 1000M. Under pressure passing 500M and made up minor ground before peaked 100M. (Substantial amount of blood in horse's trachea.)
8 5 MORE THAN YOU WISH (CK380) M W Leung V Never better than midfield on fence. No progress home straight.
9 2 MEGABUCKS (CJ301) B Doyle -- Travelled wide and without cover at midfield and moved up to race outside the pace group turning in. No extra final furlong.
10 11 SUGAR ON TOP (CG274) G Cheyne B Trapped wide after moderate start. Gradually dropped to rear but was still wide and without cover. Never likely.
11 9 MASSIVE STAR (CJ126) S K Sit B/H Hard ridden early but didn't muster. Stayed 3-wide towards rear before dropping out top of home straight.
12 4 KINGIFLY (CG020) T H So P2/TT 2-wide behind midfield early and middle stages. Found nothing in the straight. (Bled.)
