2 4 TEAM WORK (CH276) T H So B Pressed on to occupy the box-seat just behind the pacesetter, attempted to fight for lead early in home straight, could not match the strides of the winner final 150 M but did keep on well for 2nd.
3 9 PERFECT SPRINT (CL107) G Mosse -- Awkward start, held up in a fence position just behind the midfield, responded well when asked for efforts final 300 M finished off soundly for 3rd.
4 3 GREAT GUY (CH112) M Chadwick TT Broke fastest, took time to muster and caught 3-wide early, urged along to chase the leader in middle stages, kept battling on in home straight and looks at least for a place, just missed out.
5 2 GLENEALY STAR (CH284) A Suborics TT Out in line, driven to travel one-off 2 to 3Ls off the pace, swung widest for home, only one-paced when asked for efforts final 300 M.
6 11 ELEGANCE FORTUNE (CJ280) D Whyte -- Bit slow to begin, niggled along to catch up to mid-division but caught 3-wide with no cover, finished off fairly well down centre of home straight without offering threats to the principals.
7 5 MAGIC SWEEP (CH299) Z Purton B Cozily placed on rails in the mid-division, niggled along rounding the bend, had every chance in home straight but finished off disappointingly, failed to make any progress.
8 8 ELEGANT WIN (CG297) O Doleuze B/TT Taken to the rear from gate 12, patiently ridden until the home straight, only made very limited progress along the inner.
9 6 SUPERIOR UNIT (CJ045) B Doyle B/TT Prominently sat 1-2Ls behind the leader, responded only fairly when asked for efforts early in the home straight, could not find extra final 100 M, soon dropped out.
10 1 CONFUCIUS CLASSIC (CJ141) K C Leung CP/TT Given a waiting ride as usual and travelled 7 to 8Ls off the pace, swung widest for home, gave no response when asked for efforts final 250 M, never competitive.
11 7 SUPER GOAL MASTER (CG220) C K Tong B/TT Lacked early speed and ended up traveling rearward 6Ls off the pace, outpaced rounding the home turn, proved beaten soon after entering the straight.
12 12 ESPERANZA (CG159) W C Marwing B Out in line but soon drifted back towards the rear, travelled 3-wide throughout, failed to make up any ground in the home straight.
