1 10 FULL BLESSINGS (CH238) K L Chui TT Settled 2 to 3-wide, in third position and in pursuit of the breakaway leader. Responded well to pressure turning for home to reel in the leader and surge to the front after the 100 M.
2 2 COSMO SUCCESSOR (CH118) C K Tong -- Settled in front of midfield, 2 deep with cover. Worked into the clear in the straight and got to the line soundly.
3 12 SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) H W Lai B/SR Parked close to the on pace runners along the fence. Battled on gamely over the final stages.
4 8 TOUCH LUCKY (CH193) D Whyte B-/XB/TT Camped behind the speed, 3 to 4-wide no cover. Kept on well in the straight.
5 1 GOLDEN BALL (CH128) C Soumillon -- Was midfield the fence before being checked near the 800 M and was last approaching the first bend. Closed off strongly.
6 6 JADE DANCER (CE170) O Doleuze B Pressed on from a wide gate and by the first turn had crossed to lead about 2 off the fence and approximately 4L in front. Tired in the run to the line.
7 4 TOUT VA BIEN (CJ020) S Dye P2/TT Settled in last position from the outside gate. Was hampered near the 800 M, went wide from that point on and had a tough run from there on.
8 3 VICTORY SPEEDY (CJ206) G Mosse B/TT1 Chased the tearaway leader throughout, fading on its effort inside the last 100 M.
9 7 VILLAGE KID (CK018) K C Leung -- Travelled towards the rear 2 deep with cover before finding the rail near the 700 M. Plodded to the finish.
10 11 ODE TO JOY (CJ298) M Du Plessis B Raced 2-wide with cover behind midfield. Failed to quicken in the final stretch, weakening over the final stages.
11 9 TATTENHALL DELIGHT (CG068) B Doyle B Reared as the start was effected and lost considerable ground. Never got into the race thereafter despite being hampered at the 800 M traveling at the rear for the majority of the event.
12 5 BLUE MAGIC (CK032) T H So -- Settled midfield the fence. Was a beaten horse before the turn and gave in quickly in the home straight finishing tailed out. (To trial.)
