1 1 DREAM TEAM (CK076) M Chadwick TT Handily placed behind leading pair and well suited by the fast pace, moved to the front 200m out then rallied strongly to fend off the 2nd in late stages.
2 10 HURRICANE DASH (CJ186) T H So XB/H Within striking distance in 4th, showed good acceleration on straightening and looked the likely winner near 200M, kept on but was outbattled by the winner in closing stages.
3 3 CERISE CHERRY (CL141) Y T Cheng B Went forward as expected, crossed to lead passing 1100M but was pressed by a runner on the outside and went very fast, headed inside 200M and tired in late stages.
4 6 FIRM OFFER (CE008) H W Lai SR/TT Placed in midfield more forward than usual, stayed on to finish a distant 4th.
5 11 PRINCE KALAMOUN (CK178) M L Yeung -- Along the fence behind mid-division, kept on same pace and never looked likely.
6 12 ROYAL PANACHE (CL132) D Whyte TT Tucked in behind midfield 4-5Ls off the pace, niggled along over the home turn but couldn't find extra pace to challenge seriously.
7 5 DANZULU (CJ069) B Prebble B Trapped 3-wide and never better than midfield, ran on one-paced final 300M.
8 9 HOLD HANDS (CH116) C K Tong -- Slow to begin, in last and was severely checked near 1000M, had plenty to do turning in but could make limited progress only.
9 4 RIDE WITH THE WIND (CL183) J Lloyd B/TT Always rearward and became unsettled near 1000M, no impression on straightening. (Unacceptable Performance. To barrier trial around a bend.)
10 2 FORTUNE RED PEPPER (CK199) Z Purton -- Towards the rear section and travelled 3-wide for the majority of the race, lacked further response on straightening, eased inside 100M.
11 7 NEEDLES AND THREAD (CJ282) K W Leung B In midfield early then dropped back towards the rear passing 1200M, driven inside 300M but no progress. (Lame.)
12 8 DORDENMA (CE333) W M Lai H1/TT- Pressed the pace outside leader, weakened approaching home straight, soon behind and finished tailed off. (Unacceptable Performance.)
