2 10 BRAVE COMMANDER (CC322) K L Chui TT 2-wide and 2Ls back in 3rd at 1200 M, still right there at final bend and at 200 M, ran on fairly and only marginally outstayed.
3 1 MAGIC TEMPLE (CC368) D Whyte PC/TT Crowded at start, 4Ls back in 8th at 1000 M, 4-wide turning for home, ran on to nick a place on the line but took his time doing it.
4 8 ALWAYS HAPPY (CE085) Y T Cheng B/TT Improved effort, led by 2Ls on fence at 1200 M, disputing advantage from 800 M to home straight, still with a winning chance at 50 M and lost a place final strides.
5 11 TATTENHALL DELIGHT (CG068) H K Yim -- Keen early and blundered at 1300 M, 5Ls down in 8th or so at 1000 M, without clear running when turning for home, stayed on fairly on fence, nearest at finish.
