1 | 6 | NOBLE DE BEST (CJ160) | T Angland | B/TT | Away in line. Settled 2-wide behind midfield first turn. Progressed 3-wide and was 7Ls down passing 400M. Rallied on to score victory with some comfort. |
2 | 8 | EASY GOLD (CL431) | O Doleuze | SR | Soon found the fence at midfield after start. Finished off well home straight to snatch 2nd at post but no match with winner's kick. |
2 | 11 | JUGGERNAUT (CJ019) | M Du Plessis | B/XB | Quickly into stride. Sat one-out-one-back 1300M. Driven 3-wide from home turn. Hit front 150M but failed to repel winner closing stages. Joined for a place at line. |
4 | 1 | JOYFUL WINNER II (M094) | D Beadman | B/H/TT | Handy position to home turn. Peeled out to make run passing 500M. Every chance but lacked finishing touch of the front trio. |
5 | 9 | YUAN'S FORTUNE (CL021) | J Lloyd | -- | Towards rear to home straight. 8Ls away 350M. Covered good ground thereafter and nearly made frame. |
6 | 10 | EL GRANDE (CL378) | C Y Ho | B | Rolled forward after start and eventually parked outside leader 1300M. Shifted to the fence and raced behind pace home turn. Plugged on home straight without seriously threatening the principals. |
7 | 2 | COMMON GOAL (M167) | H W Lai | -- | Restrained at break from widest gate, dropped in last, 12L off lead when wide off home turn, nipped back inside, switched out at 200m, strong run to line. |
8 | 7 | LIFE OF BEAUTY (M022) | G Mosse | B/TT | Elected to race behind midfield on fence. Same position turning into home. Held ground thereafter. |
9 | 4 | EMPIRE CITY (CL169) | T Clark | SR | Began well. Slotted 2-wide ahead of midfield to home turn. Couldn't turn up a notch final stretch. |
10 | 5 | EASY AHEAD (CK212) | T H So | V | Led on fence from 1300M. Held a 2Ls advantage turning into home. Weakened final furlong. |
