1 1 FRIENDLY GAINS (CG300) M Chadwick -- Always in touch, loomed up alongside the eventual 2nd 300 M out, kept on strongly to score under top weight.
2 6 BUNDLE O' GOLD (CJ311) B Prebble -- Quickly into stride and prominently placed in a position towards the stands' rail, collared by the eventual winner near 300 M but kept battling to the line. Narrowly beaten.
3 9 BOSS (CK216) W C Marwing H1 Slightly slow out, gradually improved to be 2Ls behind leader passing 400 M, stuck on well to claim 3rd in what was a promising debut.
4 4 SUPERIOR UNIT (CJ045) K L Chui B/TT Settled in mid-division on the outside of field, picked up OK in the final 400 M although unable to match the principals.
5 8 PLAN B (CJ123) Z Purton TT Took cover in midfield 3Ls off the pace, ran on steadily inside 300 M but couldn't really threaten the first three.
6 7 BOOMING CITY (CE325) M L Yeung B/TT Held a midfield position on the stands' rail 3Ls back, couldn't go with the leaders as tempo quickened inside 400 M, remained one-paced to the finish.
7 2 BLAZE KING (CK104) K T Yeung -- Went forward to set a decent pace down the middle of track, had every chance but not able to sustain run when the race got serious, headed near 300 M and gradually weakened in the run to the line.
8 3 HEARTLINE (CJ330) W M Lai B/TT Well enough away and was handily placed behind leaders, didn't find a change in pace when asked, weakened inside 200 M.
9 12 SOLAR MIGHTY (CH124) M Du Plessis B/TT Began awkwardly and lost ground, rushed along to a position behind midfield 4Ls behind leader, found very little when placed under pressure, no extra passing 200 M.
10 5 TAN TAT BABY (CH315) O Doleuze -- Assumed a rearward position one off the stands' rail, shaken up passing 500 M but failed to respond, eased close home. (Mucus.)
11 13 CHATER POWER (CG312) S K Sit B/TT Standard jump, raced in the rear against the stands' rail, 6Ls down inside 400 M but never picked up at any stage.
12 11 HAPPY CAGA (CJ331) H W Lai V1 Settled in a prominent position just off the pace, unable to keep up from 400 M, folded rapidly passing 200 M. (Subsequently retired.)
