1 4 EASTERN EXPRESS (T192) J Moreira B/TT Pressed forward early to sit clear 3rd, just behind the 2 early leaders. Came round to lead at 300m. Ran strongly from that point. Peaked late, but was just far enough ahead to hold on.
2 3 BOOMING DELIGHT (A113) S Clipperton TT1 Began well, and cruised forward to be placed forward of midfield, 4th/5th on the fence. Given a clear run to the line in the straight. Ran strongly, and almost mowed down the winner late.
3 9 DOYENI (T114) K C Leung TT Fairly away and then taken up to sit midfield, 1 off the fence. Looked to be battling early in the straight. Came out across heels at 150m, and ran strongly to the line, gaining on first 2.
4 8 NASSA (A119) K Teetan -- Dropped back early from the wide draw for a share of last place. Widest on the turn, and still last at the 200m. Showed a massive turn of foot late to run down the outside and take 4th.
5 11 BEAUTY WAY (A159) S De Sousa TT Pressed forward early to sit forward of midfield, 1 off the fence. Ran solidly in the straight without threatening a place.
6 6 SOLAR HEI HEI (T242) H N Wong -- Pushed hard from the wide draw to ensure he had a share of the lead. Battled on 1 paced in the straight.
7 1 SEASONS BLOOM (V410) Z Purton TT Eased forward early to settle midfield, but stuck 3-4 wide with no cover. Stayed on fairly in the straight, without ever threatening.
8 13 KEEN VENTURE (A024) M L Yeung -- Dropped back early from the wide draw to share last place. Progressed fairly in the run home and picked up a few of the slower ones late.
9 5 SICHUAN DAR (T375) C Y Ho B-/H/TT Eased out early to settle worse than midfield, 1 off the fence. Battled on fairly in the straight, with little progression.
10 12 HAPPY PLACE (S380) C Schofield B/H/TT Bumped early and dropped back to sit towards the rear of the field, 3 wide with limited cover. Wider on the turn, but only plugged away to the line fairly.
11 10 ROCKETEER (A214) T Berry -- Eased out early, eventually settling worse than midfield. Never responded to urging early in the straight, and not pushed to the line late.
12 7 GONNA RUN (T094) U Rispoli TT Eased out early and settled worse than midfield, on the fence. Didn't respond to the stick, and was eased out late.
13 2 SIMPLY INVINCIBLE (V094) M F Poon B Eased out early to settle midfield, on the fence. Never responded to riding in the straight, and dropped out quickly.
14 14 TRAVEL FIRST (T098) K K Chiong TT Pushed hard early to share the lead. Race was run by the 300m, and dropped out quickly from that point.
