1 10 OUTLAWED (T100) C Schofield V In touch early stages, improved to be 2nd back straight, went neck to neck with leader from 200M, gained upper hand 50M and held off late challenge to score.
2 11 SILVERFIELD (S106) U Rispoli PC-/XB/B1 Reserved towards the rear in 9th place, 5Ls off the pace 400M, closed off strongly to the line beaten by a diminishing neck.
3 9 THUNDER STOMP (V279) H N Wong B1 Pressed forward from wide draw, crossed to the lead passing 1150M, fought on doggedly when tackled by rival from 250M, gave way near 50M, lost 2nd close home.
4 12 SKY MELODY (B218) M L Yeung -- Taken back from wide draw, held up 2nd last 7Ls off pace, stayed on mildly entering straight, got up 4th just in time. (Inquiry into riding, Jockey had erred in not going for outside run from home turn to top of straight.)
5 6 LET'S TAKE IT EASY (A140) Z Purton H Unable to slot in, raced 3-wide in midfield and no cover from 1200M-600M, stayed on moderately entering straight not posing serious threat to first 3.
6 1 LUCKY GIRL (T355) M F Poon -- Set early pace before tracking leader from 1150M, battled on early straight, outsprinted by leaders 200M.
7 4 RULE THEE (A172) T Berry B Held up behind midfield, sat 5Ls off the pace entering final turn, swung wide home, stayed on steadily without serious threat.
8 5 UNICRON JEWELLERY (V333) J Moreira B Settled down in mid-division, moved out to 3-wide from 700M and crept closer to pace, kept on same speed only, no longer a threat mid-straight.
9 2 HAPPY SPIRIT (V008) C Y Ho B/TT 4th on settling never far off from leader, came under pressure 500M, failed to improve in straight.
10 3 RAZOR QUEST (S146) A Sanna TT Restrained in midfield along the fence, found no extra turning in, soon weakened. (Blood in trachea.)
11 7 WALDORF (B253) K C Ng B/TT Failed to muster speed despite ridden along, ended up in rear 9Ls off the pace, out of touch passing 600M, never involved.
