1 8 DREAM HORSE (CG029) C Soumillon TT Away well from wide gate and pressed on to lead by 2Ls 1200 M, tended to hang out throughout, travelled well until home turn and kicked clear, always holding his rivals.
2 11 TOY QUEST (CC036) D Nikolic -- Slowly away, a good 10Ls off pace in 11th with 900 M to race 6Ls down in rear turning for home, tight for room when improving at 200 M, stayed on strongly but too much to make up on the winner.
3 7 GALLANT FALCON (CD194) F Coetzee B/TT Away well and settled into 2nd about 2Ls off pace, 1L down in 2nd and driven along turning for home, tired when caught for 2nd inside final 50 M.
4 1 DON RICARDO (CE262) D Whyte -- 3-back on fence about 5Ls off pace in 4th at 1200 M, closer turning for home and had every possible chance to at least place but didn't find the acceleration.
5 2 FORTUNE WARRIOR (CD096) M Nunes B Slowly away, worse than midfield early and left 3-wide no cover about 700 M and 5Ls from the lead, a little closer on straightening, stayed on fairly, nearest at finish.
6 12 TRIUMPH (CC214) Y T Cheng V 2-wide and 5Ls back in 6th at the 1000 M, improved position a little off final bend but stayed on one-paced in the finish.
7 4 SEASONS TREASURE (CB310) G Mosse P Held up towards rear and still 6Ls back in 10th on fence with 600 M to race, made some minor late ground, never nearer.
8 5 CIRCULAR MACHINE (CG049) E Saint-Martin -- Caught 3-wide no cover until getting in 2-wide 800 M about 5Ls off pace in midfield, a little closer turning for home with place prospects but soon fizzled out.
9 3 VISIONNAIRE (CE302) O Doleuze -- Never better than midfield at any stage, 6Ls off pace in 9th at 600 M, pushed out 4-wide (widest of all) entering stretch, plugged on at same pace down the centre.
10 10 VINTAGE GOLD (CG094) P H Lo -- 2-wide and 3Ls off speed in 3rd at 1000 M, niggled along at 600 M to lie up, tight for room when beaten 200 M out.
11 6 BOOMING CITY (CE325) M Odendaal B Slowly away and soon in rear, 10Ls off pace at 1200 M, still well behind taking home turn and made no ground.
12 9 FORTUNE BOY (CC378) W M Lai B Slow to muster speed and never travelled well throwing head up and down, 6Ls off speed in 6th at 800 M, beaten 200 M and faded.
