1 8 WINDICATOR POWER (CL424) N Callan P/TT Out in line, drifted back to race in midfield 4Ls back on rails, had a quite time to bend, gained a split at 250m and darted through, held off fast finishing rivals late.
2 3 PIZZAZZ (CL145) K C Leung H/TT Lacked early pace as usual, raced 5Ls or so away behind midfield, saved ground on rails, made progress between horses in straight and produced a strong finish but unable to peg back margin late.
3 4 CHATER MIKADO (M100) M Guyon B Drifted back from a tricky draw to race at rear 8ls away, checked at 850m, kept to rails and saved ground turning, made many lengths in straight to take 3rd.
4 6 EARL OF LEITRIM (N006) D Whyte XB1/TT1 No early pace, settled 6Ls or so back on rails, hung badly at 850m, came to outside in straight and made good ground in straight to nearly snatch place. Good debut.
5 9 GURUS DREAM (M246) K C Ng -- Displayed plenty of early speed, used a bit in bid for lead, raced outside leader applying pressure throughout, run ended at 200m when workload took toll.
6 2 TAILWIND (M103) M L Yeung B Pushed on in search of a close up spot, raced 3 wide with cover on speed and did work in mid section, 1-2Ls down turning, stuck on well given run to 200m, just dropped off thereafter.
7 14 LUCKY SCEPTER (N174) H W Lai -- Showed enough speed to hold a spot on leaders back, fair trip with even speed on, didn't quicken but kept on evenly holding ground in the straight.
8 13 REGENCY LUCK (M291) M Chadwick B/TT Had plenty of early pace to drive through and lead, set an even speed with attention from outside horses, held a 1L margin turning, headed at 250m and couldn't find extra thereafter.
9 11 PAGANINI'S SOUL (CL373) M Du Plessis XB/TT Standard break, raced just off midfield 5-6Ls back in running line, not asked to bend, made a brief dash but failed to close off final furlong.
10 5 STRAIGHT GOLD (N089) D Beadman H/XB Took up ideal spot 1 out 1 back just off pace, difficult to settle in mid section, made a brief effort 3 wide turning in, lacked turn of foot final 300m. (See Racing Incidents.)
11 1 FLYING COLOURS (CJ111) C Y Ho B/XB Amongst first away, taken back from a wide alley, raced 3 wide at rear 8Ls or so away, forced wider at first turn, made some ground wide on bend, no extra final 300m.
12 7 PROLIFIC CHAMPION (M226) G Mosse TT Out with rest, posted 3 wide in midfield, had cover in middle stages, struggling turning and faded out of it tamely.
13 12 SIR EAGLES (M403) B Doyle -- Taken back from a wide gate, received a bad check at 850m when racing 3 wide at rear, still well back to bend, made no real impression.
