1 13 BAUHINIA (CD118) M W Leung B-/PC2 Best away, eased back to race in 3rd or 4th 2Ls off the pace until final bend, hit the front 200 M out and all out to just cling on.
2 12 LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) O Doleuze B Settled 10th about 7Ls from the lead initially, ridden along at the 1000 M, wide turning in when 5Ls back, responded well, post just came too soon.
3 5 STORM'S DESTINY (CJ260) W C Marwing CP Taken back from wide gate, 12th and 9Ls behind at 800 M, still rear but travelling nicely into straight, stayed on well through pack to place.
4 11 LIGHTNING MOUNT (CH082) K L Chui B/TT Midfield with cover 5Ls from the pace until halfway, closer off home turn and with every chance at the furlong pole, couldn't seal the deal.
5 1 NIGHT HUNTER III (CH102) B Doyle B- Worse than midfield before advancing 3-wide no cover at 800 M when 5Ls off in 7th, upsides leaders at 200 M with every chance, couldn't sustain.
6 2 SPRING SMILES (CG269) D Whyte B Slow out, settled 11th at least 8Ls from pace until halfway, pulled widest (5-wide) to challenge into straight, never quite troubled the principals.
7 3 COULDN'T CARE LESS (CD009) J Winks -- 4-back along rails about 6Ls from speed in middle stages, recovered some fair late ground along the inner without threatening.
8 9 HAPPY HEROES (CD261) M L Yeung B-/PC2 Eased back to last place from widest gate, 10Ls last at halfway, ran on okay to be nearest at finish but of little consequence overall.
9 8 DOUBLE FANTASY (CG141) B Prebble B/TT Went forward and raced too freely early on vying for the lead, a neck clear turning for home, soon headed and faded out of the picture.
10 6 FORTUNE GALLOP (CH191) T H So B Handily placed 4Ls back in 5th at the 1000 M and closer again at point of home turn, no excuses for not being able to finish off better.
11 10 TALE OF FRIENDSHIP (CH184) K C Leung B/SR 3-back the rails in 6th about 4Ls or 5Ls from the speed through to last turn, held up from 250 M to 150 M, one-paced once clear anyway.
12 14 GLOBAL WAY (CG158) H W Lai V Went forward but 3-wide no cover at first, disputed the lead until the final 400 M, soon surrendered not having had things go his own way up front.
13 4 JOY TRUMPS (CD242) D Beadman TT Taken back from wide gate, one from rear or outright last throughout at least 6Ls from the lead, poor effort.
14 7 REDHILL COMMANDER (CH078) W M Lai B/TT 4th on fence about 2Ls or 3Ls from speed until halfway, pressured to keep up at 600 M, faded out quickly, diagnosed a 'roarer', to trial.
