3 1 BRILLIANT CHAPTER (CJ100) Y T Cheng B Pushed hard to lead and found the fence before the first bend, quickened well at the top of home straight, caught at 100 M, no extra, just did enough for a place.

5 12 WATCH WHAT HAPPENS (CH145) T H So XB2 Jumped well, pushed forward and soon settled just behind the leader, one-paced in the home straight, lost a place in the final few strides.
6 11 LOVE LOCKDOWN (CL261) M Chadwick TT Broke well, settled one-off 3-4Ls off the pace, kept on fairly in the home straight, rather one-paced. (Lame left fore.)
7 6 HIGH POINT (CH215) C Y Ho CP Taken rearward from gate 11, over 10Ls behind the leader at home turn, made up some late ground in the home straight, never really troubled the principals.

11 9 BLAZING SADDLES (CL319) C W Wong -- Out with others, laced early speed and soon drifted back towards the rear, lost touch halfway, never in contention.
