1 4 ARMOR STAR (C482) J Moreira B-/V1 Began fairly, soon came to share the pace travelling keenly on the rail, gained slender advantage rounding home bend and 1L clear turning in, kicked further away over 200 metres out and flattered, hung on to the line.

5 9 CASIMIRO (C149) N Callan -- Broke well from a wide draw but taken back to close-up 7th, remained wide but gained slightly closer to 6th coming onto home bend, ran on well inside the final 200 metres.
6 7 SUPER FAST (D196) C Y Ho XB Settled wide in just worse than midfield, came under pressure entering home straight, kept on before making good late impression in closing stages.
7 10 SAM'S LOVE (A088) A Hamelin TT Taken back for rails run at the start, made swift progress before settling worse than midfield in 11th, remained similar into home straight, ran on down the centre of the track without threatening.
8 8 PARTY GENIUS (D217) K Teetan XB Began well from a wide-ish gate, travelled keenly in prominent position 3-wide without cover most of the way, found no extra after straightening.
9 12 DAILY CHARM (D398) M Chadwick B/TT Slowly away, soon recovered to midfield along the rail, travelling some 4L back in 9th or 10th, kept on steadily under pressure in straight.
10 1 LEADING FORTUNE (C441) C Wong B/E Niggled at in better than midfield, dropped slightly backward to 8th coming onto home bend, ran home one-paced.
11 11 VIVA CHEF (D411) K C Leung -- Pressed forward to share the pace early, restrained to close-up 2nd coming onto home bend, folded up quickly after straightening.
