1 11 BULLISH GOLD (CJ291) M Chadwick B/TT Fractious in gates, began well enough, held spot first behind leader throughout, in behind horses turning until 300 M when forced clear, responded well under hard riding to claim victory late.
2 1 ULTRA FANTASY (CG311) J Winks B/TT Began with first few, went on to sit behind pace pair, 1 out 1 back, had an even trail with speed on, challenged at 300 M and lead inside 200 M, overtaken in final strides.
3 4 ABLE SPEED (CK210) D Beadman B/TT Away well, allowed to drop into a midfield spot, 4Ls back in running line, progressed 3 wide from 600 M, in 3 way battle from 300 M, just couldn't match first two inside 100 M.
4 14 ROYAL FLUSH (CK184) K C Leung V/TT Fastest out, led easily but challenged by outside horse throughout, set a strong speed in mid-section, held a 1/2 length turning, headed at 200 M and could only hold ground thereafter.
5 5 HEARTLINE (CJ330) J Lloyd B/TT Slotted in behind midfield from an awkward alley, raced 6 to 7Ls off speed throughout, improved wider on bend, closed best of rest to be nearest at finish.

7 2 DEFERENTIAL (CH328) B Prebble B/TT2 Fair getaway, ended up in midfield 5Ls back in running line, came 3 wide at 600 M and 4 wide turning, looked a place chance at 300 M but tired inside final furlong.
8 7 OURAJA (CG214) K L Chui B Drifted back from the widest alley, raced at rear 8Ls or so from top end, still well back to turn, made some late ground from well back but never looked likely.
