1 7 YELLOW DIAMOND (CD246) Y T Cheng B Out with them, showed pace to be 1L away on outside rail, travelled well throughout, responded strongly last 250 M and asserted authority late to score a handy win.
2 2 GOLD STRIKER (CD365) F Coetzee -- Reasonable jump, settled mid-division, 2 to 3Ls back towards middle, ridden along from 400 M, did best work late to take 2nd.
3 10 ALWAYS GIGGLE (CG086) H W Lai B Showed good speed to share lead towards stand side, kept pace genuine and 1/2L down at 300 M, picked up well and took lead briefly but couldn't find extra and lost 2nd late.
4 8 NATURAL BLITZ (CE227) O Doleuze TT Displayed usual pace to take up running, shared lead throughout, still had a 1/2 length advantage at 300 M, just weakened towards 100 M and lost a place late.
5 9 REGENCY HORSE (CE229) Z Purton B/TT Standard jump, settled behind pace 2Ls back, tracked well throughout, hung and proved difficult to ride from 400 M, did close off reasonably holding ground in run to line.
6 4 PLANET RULER (CB359) G Mosse -- No Comments on Running information for this horse.
7 6 COUNTRY MUSIC (CD035) K L Chui XB/TT Slow to begin, trailled leader on inside rail, angled clear to make ground from 400 M, finished best of inside horses but stand side far better ground.
8 3 SANZIRO (CE208) B Prebble B/XB/TT Bumped on jumping, settled behind first few on inside rail, 2 to 3Ls back at midpoint, lacked usual close and made no headway late (outside much better going).
9 1 ABLE PRINCE (CC348) G Boss CP/TT Produced usual speedy getaway, clearly lead inside division on inside, held a 1L break at midpoint, little response when asked and weakened sharply late. (Jockey reported not striding out and mildly distressed.)
10 5 DANACOURT (CE228) M Nunes TT Awkwardly away and lost ground, settled raced 4 to 5Ls back in middle of course, shifted to outside rail at 600 M, lacked a response when asked and faded out of it late.
