1 6 ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) C W Wong SR 4-back the rails when 5Ls from the lead at 1000 M, edged out 2-wide before home turn and finished well to poke head in front close home.
2 7 O'REILLY MAGIC (CJ134) G Mosse -- Mostly 10th and between 5Ls and 6Ls from the speed through to straight, hanging in at 250 M when unbalanced, closed off strongly and only just failed.
3 4 AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) B Prebble B Switched inside from widest gate, one-from rear 8Ls off pace, peeled out 6-wide (widest of all) turning in, ran on strongly, only just came up short.
4 10 VINTAGE GOLD (CG094) F Coetzee B Handy position 2-wide and 3Ls back in 4th at 1200 M, remained in front rank, led just inside the 200 M, tipped out of the money inside final 50 M.
5 9 KING OF SHAVER (CH041) Z Purton B 2-wide in midfield about 4Ls from the pace at the 600 M, a little closer into straight, had his chance to place, couldn't seal the deal inside final 100 M.
6 8 DASHING CHAMPION (CC015) K T Yeung SR Worked hard on the speed without cover initially, held 2nd out 2-wide from 900 M to home turn, steadily dropped out of the picture in the straight.
7 2 BEAUTIFUL CHOICE (CH130) D Whyte -- Box-seated on the fence in 3rd about 2Ls from the speed until the straight, lacked a telling response in the straight and no obvious excuse as to why.
8 11 KEY WINNER (CG157) K L Chui B/TT Worse than midfield about 5Ls off early pace, improved but wider (5-wide) into home straight, failed to sustain the bid in the straight.
9 1 SPIRIT OF LO PAN (CH140) C K Tong B Slow to muster pace, 3-back along the rails about 4Ls from the pace in middle stages and same at halfway, failed to quicken up and tame finish.
10 5 KINGSTON MARBLE (CE244) W M Lai B In front rank until home straight when 1L to the good but soon headed and fizzled out rapidly.
11 12 KINGSTON TEMPLE (CH234) S K Sit B Slow to muster pace in rear, 8Ls last at halfway, never close to landing a blow.
12 3 NEEDLES AND THREAD (CJ282) P H Lo -- 5-back on the rails towards rear, about 6Ls behind the leader in middle stages, never on terms with principals and remained in rear.
