1 9 CIRCUIT FORTUNE (P357) G Mosse TT Jumped moderately, settled behind midfield, commenced move out wide on top of home bend, quickened to hit the front over 200 metres out, fought on dourly against runner-up's serious challenge to prevail in the bobbing of heads.
2 1 GOOD GOOD VIEW (P053) T Angland -- Jumped fairly from a poor draw settling in last few, quickened well to draw level inside final 200 metres holding every chance, but only to be pipped at post.
3 10 GRAND HARBOUR (P421) J Moreira H/SB1 Jumped well, amongst leaders early, gradually settled just better than midfield, did not find much room early in straight, finished off race nicely.
4 12 JOLLY POSH (P371) K Teetan TT Sluggish at start, gradually picked up to midfield on rails, hampered and lost position coming out of back straight, remained behind midfield turning in, kept on steadily to be nearest at finish.
5 6 SECRET IDENTITY (P430) N Callan H/TT Jumped well, soon taken back to travel in midfield, took closer order around the bend, shared close-up 3rd into straight, faded gradually inside final 200 metres.
6 4 OUR MARCUS (P101) M Demuro B-/XB Began awkwardly, niggled along on rails to gain a prominent position early, taken 1-back coming out of far side before becoming 2-back on top of home bend, badly baulked early in straight, but produced good late impression close to home.
7 3 GLAMOROUS RYDER (S007) M Chadwick TT1 Jumped fairly, travelled at the back, took closer order along rails rounding home bend, baulked for a run early in straight, kept on same pace closing stages.
8 2 NEW PET (P280) W M Lai B/TT Settled well behind, kept on same pace in straight.
9 7 KIDS AND WIN (P271) K C Leung B/TT Jumped fairly, gradually picked up to a prominent spot chasing leader into straight, still in touch early on but folded up quickly inside final 200 metres.
10 11 MR AWARD (M065) T H So B2/TT Driven to slender lead early stages, ceded advantage to settle behind eventual last-finisher coming out of far side, held up behind the weakening horse most of straight.
11 5 GO BANANAS (P380) D Whyte B1 Missed the break badly, detached from main field before reaching the tail-end on top of home bend, ran home one-paced.
12 8 KIM GLORY (S087) C K Tong -- Jumped moderately from the widest gate, pressed on to take up running coming out of far side, led the field until overhauled inside final 300 metres.
