1 10 JUMBO GOLD (CK393) B Prebble TT Broke well disputing early pace, eased back to box-seat from 800 M to last bend, picked up well to lead about 100 M out, readily.
2 6 STEEL NERVES (CG320) S K Sit -- 3-back the fence in midfield about 4Ls off speed before home turn, switched out to challenge, outpaced by the winner and just nicked 2nd final strides.
3 12 SINGLE MALT (CK110) M Chadwick B/TT Wide no cover throughout, always on the pace, disputing the lead turning in, headed by winner about 100 M out, lost 2nd on line, still a good run.
4 11 BIG KAHUNA (CG177) W Pike B 4-back on rails at least 5Ls from the speed before final bend, recovered some good late ground for 4th, never nearer.
5 8 TAI HANG'S PRIDE (CJ335) Z Purton -- Away well from wide gate, in the front trio within 1L of the pace before the last bend, still every chance of at least a place at the 200 M, faded late on.
6 3 SEASON LINKZ (CK133) D Beadman -- Worse than midfield from wide gate, briefly without cover down the back, 4-wide (widest) when 5Ls off lead, only made up minor late ground.
7 7 TURF WINNER (CK061) Y T Cheng -- Midfield and 3Ls behind early speed, left without cover on the circle and still 3Ls off spinning for home, gradually faded out of the picture.
8 1 WASABISABI (CJ221) K C Leung B Broke well but soon eased back to 5th, handily placed before checking badly 500 M out, 3Ls back off last bend, steadily wilted from the scene.
9 5 LUCKY BOY (CJ296) C K Tong B/TT Pressed on to lead by 1L about 900 M out, disputing the lead on the fence off last curve, yielded ground quickly inside final 200 M.
10 2 KINGSTON MARBLE (CE244) W M Lai B Around midfield and some 3Ls back until halfway, badly checked 500 M out, 10th turning for home, stayed there.
11 4 AMAZING FLYER (CK113) J Lloyd B/TT Keen early on when behind midfield, badly checked 500 M out and 7Ls back in 11th off last turn, no impression, diagnosed a roarer again.
12 9 PUBLIC FIGURE (CK322) M L Yeung B1 Slowest out losing 1L immediately, green early on, in last place throughout and never competitive.
