1 4 LIFELINE PEGASUS (CH067) G Mosse TT Settled on the back of the speed, 2-wide. Lengthened nicely in the straight to score a convincing win.
2 1 RICH DRAGON (CG079) C Soumillon V Kept in touch with the leaders, 2 deep with cover. Kept on satisfactorily in run home.
3 3 BIG KAHUNA (CG177) G Boss B Settled in last position in the run and was brought to the extreme outside turning into the straight. After being balanced early let down nicely and hit the line well.
4 10 FULL BLESSINGS (CH238) K L Chui TT1 Made the early speed before handing up near the 700 M and taking a trailing position. Stayed on soundly.
5 2 ANIMATION (CJ035) C K Tong B Worked hard from an outside gate to work forward, eventually crossing to the lead on the fence near the 700 M. Ran out of gas in the straight.
6 11 LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) Y T Cheng TT From a wide barrier, was steadied and taken across behind runners to settle in 2nd last position on the fence. Sought runs along the inside, and although it received a check near the 300 M, ran on soundly.
7 7 OSCAR PRINCE (CJ052) O Doleuze -- Travelled midfield, 2 deep with cover, closed off fairly.
8 5 LOHAN (CH279) Z Purton CP1 Raced in 3rd last position, 2 deep with cover, battled away over the final 300 M.
9 9 AMAZING VENTURE (CJ039) A Delpech -- Settled behind midfield along the rails. Peeled out in the run home but made little impression.
10 12 GENERAL KINGY (CB039) P H Lo B Settled behind the early leader along the fence. Was 3 back after the 700 M, failed to give when asked for an effort at the business end of the race.
11 8 FANTASTIC TIME (CH220) F Coetzee CP Raced close to midfield, 3-wide with cover. Never likely.
12 14 TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) W M Lai B Covered ground whilst in a midfield position, 4 deep, had cover. Struggled over the latter stages.
13 6 NEW ASIA FORWARD (CH309) H W Lai -- Was posted 4 to 5-wide on the circle no cover, midfield. Was off the bit turning for home.
14 13 EXCELLENT PLASTIC (CH263) C W Wong TT Travelled 3 to 4-wide for most of the trip, midfield no cover. Lost touch with the field after the 500 M.
