1 1 FRIENDSHIP (CE066) C W Wong -- Led on fence by 1L at 1200 M, uncontested lead by 1L until home straight and at 200 M, just lasted home for the win.
2 2 SOLAR (CC198) K T Yeung B/TT One from rear about 8Ls off the pace at 1200 M, 3-wide turning for home when 6Ls back, went inside finishing strongly, post came a touch too soon.
3 9 KEY WINNER (CG157) K L Chui TT 4Ls back in 4th at 1100 M, enjoyed a nice run close-up until the home straight, finished fairly well and just about sneaked into the placings.
4 3 STAY YOUNG (CD109) H W Lai -- On fence in 2nd at 1200 M, 2Ls back in 3rd on straightening, ran on at the one pace and nudged out of the money final strides.
4 7 ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) B Prebble SR Towards rear on fence through first half, shuffled back to 7Ls last at 600 M, ran on strongly in final stages and unlucky not to at least place.
6 12 DECAGONAL (CH244) W M Lai B/TT 2-wide and 2Ls back in 3rd at the 1200 M, over-raced down the back, 3Ls down on straightening, failed to quicken up sufficiently.
7 10 KING OF SPADES (CC056) Y T Cheng B Towards rear as usual, 3-wide with cover and 7Ls back at 1000 M, closer on circle but 4-wide (widest) turning in while hanging, nearest finish.
8 5 CLOVIS (CH044) G Mosse XB/H Fractious in gates, 3-wide no cover despite gate 4 from 1200 M, sent on to be a close 3rd at 600 M, and a neck 2nd into stretch, tired late but not beaten far.
9 11 MEGA BULLET (CH192) M Nunes -- Slow away and switched in from wide gate, 9Ls back in rear at 1000 M, still well back turning for home, always chasing majority of the field.
10 4 VINCERE (CE324) M Du Plessis B 3-back on fence in midfield about 5Ls off pace at 1100 M, lost this position and worse off in rear turning for home, one-paced thereafter.
11 6 G-ONE LEADING (CE306) F Coetzee -- 2-wide around midfield about 5Ls behind leader through to final bend, petered out tamely.
12 8 ZEPHYRUS (CH285) D Whyte B1 Slow away, 3-wide with cover 5Ls back in 8th at 1000 M, left without cover from 700 M and closer but unbalanced on straightening, soon beaten.
