1 3 ST DIDAR (CL115) M Barzalona B/TT Began well, took a nice trail on leaders back, all favours in mid section, tracked leader turning, overhauled rival inside final 100m to score a deserved win.
2 9 I SMELL MONEY (M019) D Whyte B1 Showed early speed to lead, set an even speed in front , pinched a break at the 400m, kept defying rivals until inside final 100m.
3 8 JOLLY GOOD (CL134) G Mosse SR/TT Even break, settled just off speed 3-4Ls back on rails, easy time in middle stages, worked into clear at 400m, chased hard to take placing.
4 4 ENHANCED (CL300) T Clark B- Went forward however trapped 3 wide without cover 2Ls or so away, worked in mid section, unable to lift from 250m but did well to make frame.
5 12 BEAUTY SUCCESS (CL422) M Chadwick B/TT Faded back from an awkward draw, back with last few 6-7Ls back, came wide turning and made good ground to be nearest on the line.
6 10 OWNERS' GLORY (CL391) H W Lai B Settled behind midfield 6Ls back in running line, made some progress between horses from 500m, finished evenly without threatening.
7 6 ARION OF CHIU TON (CK136) C Y Ho XB-/B/TT2 Out well, slotted into 1 out 1 back spot, had all favours to bend, possible place chance at 400m but proved 1 paced final 300m.
8 2 FLYING CHINA (CK266) O Doleuze PC Little speed as usual and settled back behind midfield, 6Ls back on rails, made some modest progress in straight without showing usual strong finish.
9 7 FORTUNE WINNER (CK315) Z Purton B/TT Began nicely, came across to race outside leader, had chance with fair run mid section, niggled turning and dropped off 300m.

12 1 NEEDLES AND THREAD (CJ282) B Doyle B Worked across to a midfield position from a tricky alley, had decent trip 4-5Ls back, attempted to improve on bend but quickly under pressure and faded out.
13 13 JUN HUA (CL222) C W Wong B Taken back from an awkward alley, raced 7 to 8Ls back on fence, never likely in straight.
