1 9 SICHUAN SUCCESS (CL307) D Whyte TT Reserved in midfield and travelled strongly to the straight, cruised into contention inside 300M, swiftly took over 150M and was always in control thereafter. Won with plenty in hand.
2 10 LEADING CITY (CK298) J Lloyd H Showed customary early speed and crossed to the lead inside 1200M, led to near 150M, no match with the impressive winner but ran on well to hold 2nd.
3 8 CHATER WAY (CL093) C Y Ho B-/SR1 In mid-division along the inside, stayed on well for 3rd but couldn't get on terms with the first two.
4 2 SUNNY KING (CH105) D Beadman H Held up towards the rear tracking the eventual winner, took time to gather on straightening, made steady progress inside 200M just missing out on 3rd.
5 1 ABLE ONE (CG108) O Doleuze H Handily placed in 3rd, had his chance but didn't find the pace to seriously challenge, faded 100M.
6 3 JOY AND FUN (CH014) B Doyle CP Not far off the good pace but was 3-wide without cover throughout, kept on effort to 200M, weakened.
7 6 CERISE CHERRY (CL141) Y T Cheng B Broke well then restrained to a spot behind midfield, shifted out from the fence halfway over the turn, kept on same pace to the line only.
8 5 FELLOWSHIP (CG292) Z Purton B/TT Held up in the rear 7Ls off the good pace, gave very limited response turning in, never a factor.
9 4 MULTIGLORY (CL168) M Chadwick TT Tracked leader, ideally placed to strike turning in but not quickened under pressure, weakened inside 200M. (Mild lameness next day.)
10 7 FINAL ANSWER (CL178) K C Leung H/XB/TT Began awkwardly, settled at the back 7Ls behind leader, not picked up on straightening, eased 200M.
