1 3 CHEERS HONG KONG (CA172) D Whyte -- Settled 3 or 4 wide in mid-division, got a bit closer 800 M out to be 3-1/2Ls off pace. 2Ls down turning in and responded well to hit front 250 M out, comfortably.
2 2 HELENE VITALITY (CA030) D Dunn B Pulled a bit early on fence forward of midfield. Got within 2-1/2Ls off leader 800 M out, then behind leader swinging into home stretch. Stayed on well though no match with winner.
3 10 GREENMORE (BT194) Y T Cheng B Held up in rear. Moved closer rounding home turn to be 4Ls adrift on straightening, kept on well for a rather remote 3rd.

5 5 IDOL (BV313) E Legrix SR Outside leader one off rail before taking over 1600 M out. Headed passing 250 M, steadily weakened.
6 6 MOMENTUM (BT279) C Williams SR-/BO Soon at rear, very keen early. Minor headway passing beaten runners after straightening, tired closing stages.

9 11 SNOWSTORM (CB255) W M Lai -- Soon set modest pace, taken on by IDOL 1600 m out and sat 2nd going into back stretch. Run ended 500 M out and dropped away steadily in home straight.
10 1 INDIGENOUS (BP103) W C Marwing TT Not far away until struggling to hold position 1200 M out, under pressure 1000 M before dropping away quickly passing 800 M. Last 600 M out and not a factor thereafter.
11 4 RAINBOW AND GOLD (CA024) G Mosse SR Around midfield on fence. Under strong pressure 700 M out to maintain position, found nothing after straightening and dropped away tamely. (Bled.)
