1 1 LUCKY MONEY (CE159) Y T Cheng -- Broke well to hold rails run in the front, travelled comfortably throughout, shook off joint race leader turning in, stuck on well in the straight and maintained lead to the line.
2 5 SOARING DRAGON (CH183) E Saint-Martin B1 Bumped into another runner after the start, raced ungenerously in early stages, settled in midfield on the rails 3Ls off the pace, had an interrupted home run down the rails, closest at the finish.
3 3 DR WELL (CD165) H W Lai B- Quickly into stride, fought for early lead before settled behind race leaders, hard driven turning in, ran on for 3rd without threatening.
4 4 EVERGREEN (CE106) W M Lai TT Away with them, eased towards the rear 5Ls behind the leader, ridden along on turning, took time to gather speed, finished the last 200 M strongly.
5 8 BATURO (CH029) S K Sit -- Began well, went forward to take a prominent role chasing leaders early, eased in mid-section, 3-4Ls behind on the turn, switched outside to challenge but always one-paced.
6 7 CENTENNIAL SMILE (CG165) M W Leung P-/B2 Slightly awkwardly away, pushed along in early stages to maintain position, settled in midfield towards the rear 4-5Ls behind leaders, made some progress on straightening.
7 2 SEASONS KNACK (CC242) P H Lo B Slow into stride, soon ended up at the rear 6Ls behind, hampered by the slow early tempo, unable to quicken up in the straight.
8 9 KINGSTON TEMPLE (CH234) K L Chui B Away reasonably, taken across the field to race towards the rear 6Ls off the pace. 3-wide and last on turning, lacked turn of foot and made little ground.
9 6 BAYVIEW GREYSLEW (CJ194) Z Purton TT Jumped with the rest, travelled wide and without cover in early stages, strode forward to lead at 1000 M, under pressure on the turn, dropped out last 200 M.
