1 3 WHAT YOU DREAM (P375) N Rawiller H/XB Dropped back to near the rear but always within 4Ls of the pace, no closer than 3-wide over the bend, shifted in under pressure early straight and proved difficult to ride, responded well when driven 200M, kicked clear.
2 9 GOOD GOOD VIEW (P053) M Chadwick -- Settled in midfield along the inside, no clear run early straight, severely hampered 350M, ran on soundly when a gap opened up 250M, got up for 2nd near line.
3 5 CLUB LIFE (P309) O Doleuze B Slow to muster speed despite ridden along early stages, raced in mid-pack and caught 4-wide making the turn, moved into contention 500M, ran on well to lead briefly 250M, soon caught by winner, weakened and lost 2nd late.
4 13 KEEN TACTICS (N143) W M Lai B/TT Reserved near the rear, 4Ls off leader going into 400M, switched wide and closed off the race steadily without getting to the winner.
5 2 MIGHTY K (M315) N Callan P-/H/TT Settled 3-wide about 2-3Ls behind leader, hampered 400M when brushed by winner, soon regained momentum to chase leaders, run ended 200M and flattened out in the final stages.
6 1 BULLISH SMART (S221) D Whyte TT Began only fairly, strode forward and had to make some use to clear runners on the inside, led them at good pace to straight, unable to hold off rivals passing 250M, faded to 6th.
7 6 FORGIVE AND FORGET (N303) Z Purton B In touch just behind leaders, lost all chance when badly held up turning home, stayed on when clear 200M.

9 4 TURBO JEWELLERY (N379) C Reith TT Towards the rear and under pressure to hold his position early stages, trapped on the inside and had a big task turning in, responded only fairly, never involved.
10 8 STEP HIGH (N047) M L Yeung -- Taken back to last from 14, 6Ls behind leaders in a strongly run race, gave limited response when switched out to challenge 350M, never a threat to leaders.
11 11 KIROV (S277) C Y Ho -- Chased leading pair in a 3-wide position without cover, failed to muster a closing response passing 400M, ran on empty final 150M.
12 12 D'OR WONGCHOY (P315) Y T Cheng B Began awkwardly, moved up to a handy position just off the pace, soon outpaced by rivals turning home, weakened away.
13 14 KING OF REASON (M154) H W Lai P- Attended the pace along the 2-path, had nothing left turning in, weakened rapidly from 300M.
