1 10 SUPER WIN DRAGON (E253) C Y Ho V/TT Settled in midfield 2-wide, gave good response when driven out 400M, quickened to lead near 100M, won going away.
2 5 MAN STAR (D429) K Teetan V Away well enough, chased leaders along the 2-path, moved up to challenge 400M, led 250M out, kept on well but not finishing pace of winner final stages. Clear from remainders.
3 1 CZARSON (D394) Z Purton B/TT Niggled along early stages to hold a position behind midfield, ran on mildly turning into straight, couldn't trouble first 2 and only managed a remote 3rd.
4 9 HELENE WISDOM STAR (D460) L Ferraris CP/H/TT Not hurried early stages, reserved at the back 6Ls off the pace, stayed on final 300M without threat to first few.
5 7 MR VALIANT (G288) L Hewitson H-/XB Dropped back to race towards the rear, kept on fairly turning home, never going the pace to challenge leaders.
6 12 KAI XIN DRAGON (E174) Y L Chung TT Moved up to track leader, lay out home turn, held 3rd place until 150M, no extra close home. (Bled.)
7 3 LUCKY FUN (E013) M F Poon TT Slightly slow away, held up near last, wide into straight, responded fairly from top of straight, failed to trouble leaders.
8 11 CALL ME TEDDY (G233) S De Sousa TT Chased leader, travelled only fairly in middle stages, not able to quicken early straight, weakened noticeably over the final stages. (Jockey : his horse may not have appreciated the sealed track.)
9 2 RED DESERT (C287) A Hamelin B1 Held up at the back racing 3-wide throughout, swung widest home, gave limited response passing beaten horses only.
10 8 FLYING BONUS (B433) C L Chau P2 From draw 12 went forward to lead, headed 300M out, weakened rapidly towards the line.
11 4 EVERYONE'S VICTORY (E177) H Bentley H/TT Crowded for room on jumping, recovered to race in midfield, failed to pick up speed on straightening, never dangerous.
12 6 GOLDEN WARSTEED (G350) A Badel XB Held up towards the rear, caught wide no cover from 700M, found no extra in straight, soon out of contention and finished tailed out. (Unacceptable Performance.)
