1 11 CLASSA SUPREME (CG261) H W Lai TT Fast away, showed plenty to cross them from an outside alley, took up running and kept speed even throughout, rolled along from 600 M and pinched a 3Ls break, had rest chasing and held on well despite tiring a little late.
2 7 WHIPLASH (CG072) S Dye B Out with line, took up prominent spot camped behind speed, had run of race 3Ls back in 2-wide line, tracked well at Rock but leader got away, stuck to task well steadily closing in straight without looking likely.
3 8 SUPER DANA (CC293) K T Yeung B Even jump, ridden along to hold a midfield position on rails, had a good trip 4Ls back suited by good pace, not asked in mid-section, pushed along to make ground on bend, made progress in straight to snatch 3rd.
4 2 EQUATOR KID (CC134) Y T Cheng -- No pace from outset and taken back from awkward draw, posted 3-wide 6Ls back without cover, did share of work with pace on, still well back on bend, made good ground last 200 M down middle to make frame.
5 3 PERFECT FEELING (CH035) O Doleuze TT Ordinary jump, ridden along but received a bad check passing post on first occasion, raced 7 to 8Ls back at rear, helped by tempo but gave too much start at 600 M, rallied hard and made plenty of ground last 200 M without clearest run.
6 6 VICTORY TURBO (CD320) B Prebble -- Began with rest, lacked early pace and checked soon after start, raced behind midfield 7Ls back on rails, helped by tempo but set a big task on bend, made even progress once clear of traffic turning but held up again last 100 M.
7 5 STAY YOUNG (CD109) D Whyte -- Reasonable break, urged along to hold a midfield berth, raced 5Ls away in midfield running line, niggled along from 600 M, didn't have a turn of foot and just plugged steadily in straight.
8 1 CONGRATS (CG298) C W Wong -- Well enough to begin, came across from a wide alley to take a spot outside leader, raced 1 to 2Ls back and did share of work with even tempo, still there on turning but couldn't sprint and capitulated from 150 M.
9 10 SOUNDS FANTASTIC (CH146) M Nunes XB Unbalanced early and ended up at tail, raced 2-wide 8Ls of frontrunners, helped by fast tempo, well back passing 600 M, still last on turning in, kept on evenly making some late ground passing tired a few horses.
10 9 WEALTHY TREASURE (CC270) M W Leung -- Showed customary speed to hold a spot behind leader, raced 1 to 2Ls back throughout, chased solid speed from mid-point and under pressure on turn, gradually passed by others last 150 M when labouring late.
11 4 SUNBELL (CB391) F Coetzee -- Began with rest, faded back as expected to race behind midfield, raced 7Ls back in 2-wide line, helped by slow tempo, but niggled from mid-point, lacked usual finishing burst and just plugged in straight.
12 12 MASTER DREAMER (CE293) W M Lai B Jumped fairly, pressed on but trapped 3-wide in midfield without cover, had a hard run 4 to 5Ls back with speed on, clearly struggling on bend and weakened right out of straight.
