1 5 MAGIC TEMPLE (CC368) O Doleuze B-/PC2/TT2 Hard ridden to maintain its position behind midfield along the rail. Got runs through the field in the final stretch to claim victory well before the winning post.
2 7 TYCOON TAYLOR (CH288) Y T Cheng B Ridden along to keep a midfield position, the fence. Kept to the inside in the straight and once properly in the clear near the 200m, fought strongly to the line.
3 9 MISTER HORSE (L035) H W Lai B1 Camped worse than midfield, 1 off with cover. Was shunted wide after the 600m and lost ground. Regained momentum soon after and closed off well.
4 2 INDUSTRIAL MARVEL (CG188) W C Marwing -- Parked 3 back, 2 wide with cover. Eased out early in the straight and maintained a good gallop to the wire.
5 1 EVER BEAUTY (CJ161) D Whyte XB Handed up front running duties near the 900m & stalked the leader thereafter along the fence. peeled out early down the running and hit the front at the furlong but was overhauled to finish out of the frame.
6 8 SUNSHINE BOY (CJ281) K W Leung B/H Settled 2 wide, midfield with cover. Whacked away at the same speed in the run to the line.
7 4 KINGIFLY (CG020) C Y Ho P2/TT Travelled midfield, 3 wide without cover. Struggled in the home straight.
8 6 HO HO LIFE (L209) C W Wong -- Settled in second last position, 1 off with cover. Coursed wide from about the 600m, passed tiring horses in the straight.
9 11 WIN PET (CK409) M L Yeung CP Ridden forward from the outside alley to make all along the fence approaching the first turn. Faded after the furlong.
10 3 JOYFUL JOYFUL (CK284) B Prebble PC1 Worked forward to settle in 2nd position, 1 off. Was disappointing in its failure to finish the race off and was well beaten.
11 12 BLINK AGAIN (CK011) C K Tong V/XB As the start was effected reared, hit its head on the overhead bar and consequently lost a considerable amount of ground, settling a long last. Never recovered. (To trial.)
12 10 SPARKLING FEELING (L047) D Dunn TT Settled towards the rear along the fence. Proved a handful, making the first turn awkwardly and shifting out abruptly. Never a factor. (To trial.)
