1 | 5 | SUNNY YING (P152) | W C Marwing | -- | Dropped back to a 2-wide position in midfield, travelled smoothly, ran on well when clear 350M, fought off the persistent runner-up final 200M. |
2 | 1 | REAL GENEROUS (M193) | Z Purton | B/H/TT | Held up 3-wide behind mid-division, responded well turning in, went head to head with eventual winner inside 200M, narrowly beaten. |
3 | 7 | TURBO JEWELLERY (N379) | B Prebble | B/TT | Always prominent, driven to a narrow lead 300M, kept on under pressure, headed by first two near line. |
4 | 14 | TOWERING STORM (M401) | K C Leung | B | Began only fairly, ridden along but failed to muster, settled near the rear along the fence, clear run from 300M, stayed on well. |
5 | 9 | SHANTARAAM (N410) | O Doleuze | SR | Led early, taken back a bit from 1200M, kept on well and had every chance turning in, couldn't match finishing kick of first two over final 100M. |
6 | 10 | JAMESINA (CH290) | N Callan | B | Patiently ridden, near the rear 6Ls off the pace, held up early straight, ran on well but was steadied again close home, could have finished closer. |
7 | 12 | PRECISION ERA (P006) | W M Lai | B-/TT | Held up in midfield along the fence, made stealthy headway from 350M, much improved effort. |
8 | 11 | XILAI XIANZI (N088) | R Fourie | TT | Emerged to lead near 1000M, set steady pace, headed 300M, kept on until no extra final stages. |
9 | 2 | HEAR THE ROAR (M152) | T Angland | B-/V1/TT | Switched off to near last, 7Ls off the pace in middle stages, stayed on only fairly final 300M, never a threat to leaders. |
10 | 4 | LEVEL PLAYER (N323) | M Chadwick | TT | Went forward from draw 13, crossed to rail near 1200M, tracked leader and had every chance in straight, outpaced by leaders final 150M. |
11 | 3 | PERCY JACKSON (N188) | Y T Cheng | -- | Caught wide early stages, held back to midfield for cover, gave limited response when driven inside 400M, out of contention mid-straight. |
12 | 6 | ALPHA GRAND (N127) | U Rispoli | B | Lost ground at the start, hard driven to a midfield position, difficult to settle, failed to quicken when placed under pressure, eased 200M out. |
13 | 13 | PRETTY BLUEBERRY (N117) | T H So | H/XB | Positioned 3-wide ahead of midfield, left with no cover from 1100M, soon weakened turning in. |
14 | 8 | OLE OLE (CK301) | M L Yeung | TT | Outpaced in last, niggled along to stay with the field 800M, brought wide to straight, beaten near 300M. |
