1 8 WATCH WHAT HAPPENS (CH145) J Victoire -- 4-back on fence in 7th about 5Ls from the pace at halfway, good headway to lead about 100 M out and all out to just cling on for the win.
2 6 GREAT ACHIEVEMENT (CD250) H W Lai TT Always prominent, held the 'one-out-one-back' position at halfway, led 300 M out, headed by winner 100 M out, went down fighting.
3 4 EXPRESS WIN (CJ042) C W Wong TT 3-back on fence about 4Ls down in 6th through to home straight, ran on well inside the final 200 M and only barely missed the quinella. (Questioned.)
4 1 SYLLABUS (CD388) K C Leung B/TT Trapped 3-wide no cover at 1200 M, pressed on to race outside leader in 2nd at 800 M, always close-up thereafter and only just missed a place.
5 10 SILVER SUN (CE126) T H So -- Soon led by 1L on fence, a neck clear at top of home straight, soon headed and held from the money inside final stages.
6 2 NOBLE CONQUEROR (CG169) C Soumillon P2 Towards rear at least 5Ls or 6Ls from the front right until straightening, stayed on only fairly in the home straight and never likely to place.
7 11 WHATABOB (CD213) C K Tong SR/TT Crossed from wide gate to take up prominent position, box-seated in 3rd on fence at halfway, comprehensively outpaced in the home straight.
8 3 AMBITIOUS GENERAL (CJ066) D Whyte TT Worse than midfield about 5Ls behind pace at first, improved out 4-wide (widest) turning for home, one-paced to conclude.
9 9 TOP HONOR (CE183) G Mosse -- Slowest out but soon recovered to race on fence towards rear at least 6Ls from the pace, still well back on straightening, never landed a blow.
10 5 DANESIS (CH194) M Chadwick TT Unacceptable performance for a favourite, niggled along to keep up in rear at halfway, detached turning in, tame finish. (Tactic questioned.)
11 7 SOUNDS BEST (CE255) W C Marwing TT 2-wide and 4Ls back in 6th in middle stages, ridden along to remain in touch at the 600 M, faded out in the straight.
