1 5 KUNGFUMASTER PANDA (C153) Z Purton B/TT Settled down just ahead of midfield, travelled well in a fast run race, moved up strongly and challenged for the lead near 200M, drew clear late stages.
2 11 OWNERS' STAR (B427) V Borges B Sat behind midfield 6Ls off leader, kept on well turning into straight, got up for 2nd close home but couldn't get near to the winner.
3 10 CHATER PINS (E057) C Y Ho SR Taken across behind runners, reserved near last in a fast run race, moved closer from 600M, stayed on final stages to take 3rd near line.
4 2 PALACE PAL (G172) C L Chau -- Not far off from leaders early stages, drifted back to midfield 1500M, had every chance turning home, fought on steadily to the line, just missed out on a placing.
5 4 SMILING TIME (E235) L Currie V/TT Slow to begin, settled behind midfield in a fast run race, shifted out 250M to obtain clear running, closed off mildly.
6 3 KOWLOON GREAT (E476) A Badel CP/TT Dropped back from wide draw, settled in last in a fast run race, swung widest into straight, made moderate gains but never seriously threatened.
7 9 CIRCUIT ELITE (E487) M Chadwick B/TT Lost cover from 1400M, moved up to chase leader in a fast run race, vied for lead early straight, no extra final 150M. (Jockey : not suited by the quick tempo early and middle stages.)
