1 8 SPECTACULAR AWARD (CK364) J Winks -- Settled nicely in midfield, angled into clear 300M and showed a good turn of foot to take it up near 100M then kept on well to hold off the runner up.
2 2 FOREST STAR (CJ167) M Chadwick TT 2-wide behind mid-division, soon into clear turning in, quickened up nicely to finish 2nd but was comfortably held by the winner.
3 1 RED RULER (CH198) G Mosse V/TT Held up patiently behind mid-division, saved ground by keeping to the inside but had to shift out near 300M to make his challenge, finished off the race strongly.
4 5 CHAMPAGNE DAYS (CL024) Y T Cheng H1 3Ls back in 4th and enjoyed a smooth run along the inside throughout, ran on well in his debut although offering little threat to the principals.
5 4 BUMBLE BEE (CL027) B Prebble H1 Even break, placed handily in 3rd and within striking distance always, ran on and briefly looked threatening near 250M but turned flat in late stages.
6 6 PROSPEROUS (CL054) O Doleuze -- Recovered from a slow start to take the lead passing near 800M, drew 2Ls clear passing 400M, kept on till 100M then weakened into 6th.
7 3 CONQUEROR (CE270) S K Sit V Lacked early pace, ended up in last trailing 7Ls behind the pace, taken wide to make his move approaching home straight, made up some ground but couldn't reach leaders.
8 10 PUBLIC FIGURE (CK322) G Cheyne B Never better than midfield, raced greenly and hung in over the final 300M. Never a threat.
9 12 SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) M L Yeung B/SR Caught 3-wide in a position ahead of midfield, kept on same pace before finding no extra final 100M.
10 11 WONDERFUL DOLPHIN (CJ274) W M Lai -- Not hurried and gradually taken across to a fence spot in the rear group, 7Ls behind leader turning into straight, driven but no progress.
11 7 SOLAR WONDER (CL034) H W Lai H-/B1 Towards the rear 7Ls back, no response when driven inside 400M, never any impression.
