1 8 JAEGER BOMB (P281) M Chadwick H/P Held up behind mid-division, travelled well along the inside, switched out 400M, quickened to a narrow lead nearing 100M, prevailed.
2 4 SUPREME ESSENCE (N401) Z Purton B-/TT Waited with towards the rear of the field, saved ground on the fence throughout, picked up well when asked but was held up a bit near 300M, soon renewed his challenge, held by winner final stages.
3 10 CHANCELLOR (M347) K C Ng B/TT Sent forward, tracked leader, briefly led inside 250M, kept on steadily towards line but couldn't match finishing pace of first two over final 150M.
4 7 ADMIRAL LORD (P093) A Suborics XB/TT Began only fairly, given a waiting ride in the rear 8Ls off the pace, made progress when pulled out wide passing 450M, got up for 4th just in time but well beaten by first three.
5 11 GOLDEN DEER (P121) W M Lai -- Began well from draw 11, eased back to find cover in mid-division, raced wide again making the turn, kept on well in straight, in contention until weakening final 150M.
6 2 WRATH OF FIRE (L420) D Whyte -- Settled towards the rear, took time to gather entering straight, stayed on mildly for non-threatening 6th over this shorter trip.
7 5 HIGH TROJA (S111) Y T Cheng -- Dropped back to the rear about 7Ls off leader, crowded for room entering straight, made some progress final 300M without troubling leaders, shifted in abruptly near 100M.
8 3 GRIFFINDOR (P153) N Callan H/SB Niggled along to hold a spot ahead of midfield, not quickened under pressure in straight, faded final 150M.
