1 6 BEST ELEVEN (N016) W C Marwing TT Began well, took prominent spot on leaders back, had reasonable run with even speed, came off heels turning and lengthened nicely to score another handy win.
2 7 TIME AFTER TIME (M259) B Prebble XB/TT Restrained from widest gate, behind midfield but tracked up 3 wide with cover, 5-6Ls back, made 5 wide bid turning and kept closing to snare 2nd late.
3 4 ARRIVED AHEAD (M068) T H So -- Displayed customary speed to take up running, set an even tempo in front, had plenty to offer turning and made them chase, tackled inside 200m, stuck to task and lost 2nd late.
4 10 COSMIC BOOM (N019) J Lloyd H/XB/TT Out in line, unable to slot in and was trapped 3 wide without cover, did work but was still right there turning, run ended at 100m after trip took toll.
5 5 GOOD WORDS (CL371) A Suborics TT Showed early toe to take spot outside leader, raced 2 wide on pace throughout, loomed to tackle leader turning in but no extra final 200m.
6 8 REGENCY LUCK (M291) M Chadwick B/TT Out in line, assumed box seat 1 out 1 back, all favours in mid section, restricted room early in straight but appeared 1 paced at business end just holding ground.
7 11 GROOVY (CL401) C W Wong -- No early speed, settled at rear on rails, 6-7Ls back throughout, bumped when coming wider on bend, made some gradual progress down middle.
8 9 SIR EAGLES (M403) T Clark CP Fair getaway, raced 4Ls away in midfield on rails, had quiet time and saved ground on rails, only 1 gear in straight and never got nearer.
9 1 FLYING COLOURS (CJ111) T Angland B/XB Planted 3 wide in midfield when unable to get in, had cover throughout 3-4Ls away, came wider turning but peaked at 300m and battled thereafter.
10 3 TAI SING YEH (CL037) K C Ng B Drifted back from tricky gate, raced behind midfield on rails 6Ls off lead, still well back to turn, didn't make much impression in home stretch.
11 2 NEW VISION (M028) D Whyte -- Settled midfield of just worse, 4-5Ls back in running line, niggled along turning but failed to find usual finish. (Jockey reported reluctant to stretch out.)
12 12 GERONIMO MEADOW (N226) W Pike TT1 Taken back from a wide gate, raced back with last few 6Ls or so away, bumped turn when asked for effort, never looked likely and struggled in straight.
