1 4 OSCAR PRINCE (CJ052) O Doleuze -- Patiently handled towards rear about 5Ls or so from the speed, ran through the field to lead close home.
2 9 REDHILL COMMANDER (CH078) Z Purton TT 3-back on fence about 4Ls or 5Ls from the front in midfield until home straight, finished well but bettered only by the winner in final strides.
3 14 ZERO GRAVITY (CH037) K L Chui TT Crossed from wide gate to slip into 3rd about 2Ls off pace with cover at halfway, led 300 M out but grabbed by quinella pair inside final 50 M.
4 11 PALIO KING (CG073) D Whyte TT Settled in 5th or so on fence about 2Ls or 3Ls off lead through to final turn, held up until 250 M out, lacked a decisive response once clear.
5 12 NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) M L Yeung V Around 4th and 2Ls or 3Ls from the speed until straightening, every chance when 1L down in 3rd at 200 M but could not follow through.
6 2 FIRST KNIGHT (CB357) K C Leung B No Comments on Running information for this horse.
7 1 GRAND GENERAL (CJ113) C W Wong -- In 12th about 7Ls off the pace initially and 6Ls away swinging for home, made a little headway late but no great danger overall.
8 13 VITALITY CHAMP (CD301) W M Lai XB 4-wide no cover and worse than midfield down back straight, 6Ls down turning for home, remained in latter half of the field. (Tactic questioned.)
9 10 DENDRANTHEMA LOVE (CD073) P H Lo B In rear, about 8Ls last at halfway, 5-wide (widest of all) turning for home, retrieved some minor late ground.
10 6 MAXIMUM CHARM (CJ056) B Doyle B Bounded at start and slowest away, 7Ls back and one from rear making final bend, no impression.
11 5 MAGI JOY (CH056) H W Lai B Disputed pace out 2-wide until taking up the lead turning for home, headed just over 200 M out and faded late.
12 8 FORTUNE GALLOP (CH191) K T Yeung B Around mid-division and 5Ls from the front until final bend, always held by the majority.
13 7 ALL FOR ONE (CH180) B Prebble B1 Travelled well enough in midfield about 4Ls from the pace at 1000 M, ridden along to stay in touch at top of home straight, very weak final 200 M.
14 3 MIRACULOUS (CE115) C K Tong -- Disputed the lead on fence from the 1000 M, headed at top of home straight and petered out rapidly. (Abnormal breathing noise.)
