1 8 NOT USUAL TALENT (C095) A Domeyer -- Shifted across behind runners, raced near last 6-7Ls away, wide on straightening, quickened up smartly to lead 150M, kept on strongly final stages for 3rd win of the season.
2 7 MR SO AND SO (B412) J Moreira TT From wide draw eased back after the jump, raced as the back-marker early stages, kept to inside rounding home turn, kicked home well straightening, held by winner final 150M, well clear from rest.
3 6 GREEN LUCK (B413) C Y Ho B/H Held up near the rear 5-6Ls off the pace, 3-wide entering back straight, swung widest home, stayed on steadily to claim 3rd near line without reaching top 2.
4 10 FAT TURTLE (C215) Z Purton B Pressed forward, travelled keenly 1200M when racing outside leader, vied for lead early straight, briefly led 200M, couldn't hold off first 2 inside 150M, lost 3rd close home.
5 4 ENRICHMENT (B457) A Sanna P Settled behind mid-division along the inside, 7th at 400M, worked home steadily without ever looking likely.
6 12 PERFECT MATCH (B393) M L Yeung B/TT Chased leaders, no closer than 3-wide throughout, kept on same pace in straight after tough trip, never threatened leaders.

9 2 TURIN REDSTAR (B092) K C Leung CP/TT With leaders early stages then eased back to be 2Ls off the pace on settling, only laboured in straight. Never a factor.
