1 10 PACKING HERO (CG258) Y T Cheng -- Settled worse than midfield about 5Ls from the speed and with cover until the 800 M, 4Ls down in midfield at home turn, kept on finding only to lead in final strides.
2 11 LE ROSSIGNOL (CG196) R Fradd CP1 Travelled well throughout and didn't hang this time from his inside gate, over 1L down in 2nd at 800 M, picked up nicely to lead 250 M out, grabbed in final strides by the winner.
3 3 CHATER SILK (CG050) A Delpech -- 4-back on fence in midfield at halfway about 4Ls off speed, 3Ls back in 5th taking home turn, short of room at 200 M and again at 100 M so did well to get up for 3rd.
4 13 ABLE STANDARD (CG043) C W Wong B/TT Travelled well 3-back on fence about 3Ls off pace in 4th or so at 800 M, closer turning for home, 1L down and every chance in 3rd 150 M out, lost out on a place late, much improved.
5 1 POCKET MONEY (CE253) D Whyte B Switched from widest gate to fence about 8Ls off pace at 1000 M, still well back about 5Ls down turning for home, improving when checked 200 M out, ran on again late, never nearer.
6 6 BRILLIANT ONE (CG212) S Dye TT 5Ls back in midfield at 1000 M, over 3Ls down in 6th at home turn when hard ridden to keep up, one-paced thereafter.
7 7 TERRAFERMA (CG016) F Coetzee B/TT Didn't break well, recovered to lead by 2Ls at 1000 M, 1L to the good turning for home, headed 250 M out and swamped late.
8 8 EVERGREEN (CE106) W M Lai TT 3-wide with cover in 9th place and 5Ls off pace at 1000 M, much the same position turning for home, plugged on and never threatened to place.
9 2 RICH DRAGON (CG079) G Mosse B 3-wide with cover when 4Ls down in 6th at 800 M, a little closer but 4-wide turning for home, ran at same pace down the centre of the track. (Lame next day.)
10 4 PRIME SCORE (CG280) B Prebble -- Switched from wide gate to be 2-wide in rear early on and about 7Ls off pace, 6Ls back in 13th at final turn, ran on without any menace down the centre of the track.
11 14 LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) M Odendaal TT Did lots of things wrong, raced too freely when 3-wide no cover when 2Ls off pace in 4th at 1000 M, headed up at 800 M when still wide, entitled to fade inside final 200 M.
12 9 HE CAN TANGO (CG288) O Doleuze -- Fractious in gates, 10Ls last at 800 M, widest in rear turning for home, never on terms.
13 12 LUMINOUS (CE300) C K Tong -- 2-wide and racing prominently 2Ls off pace in 3rd at 1000 M, hard pressed to maintain this position taking home turn, quickly faded.
14 5 OWNERS LAD (CG273) E Saint-Martin TT Slowest away, on fence about 5Ls back in 10th at 1000 M, in same position taking home turn, squeezed for room on fence at 200 M and eased late.
