1 3 RAY'S FAVOURITE (CL045) D Whyte CP Settled 1 out 1 back after being crossed near the 800m. Shifted in passing the 500m, and chased well down the running. Had the race in its keeping near the 100m.
2 11 METREVELLI (CM165) U Rispoli B Parked worse than midfield after being slow to begin, 1 off with cover. Let down nicely after obtaining clear running early in the straight.

4 4 DR UNION (CK105) W M Lai -- Enjoyed a nice run in the race box seating. Couldn't hold its spot after the 700m, copped a check near the 500m, and maintained a good gallop to fill the frame.
5 1 AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) H W Lai B Camped behind midfield, 2 deep with cover. Came widest on the home turn and closed off soundly without threatening.
6 5 EPEE DE HUA (CJ307) M Chadwick B Travelled 3 back 2 wide with cover, had every chance but couldn't capitalize.
7 9 GRANDWAY FLYER (CK302) K C Leung H/SR Coursed 3 wide and without cover, whilst racing on the speed, eventually crossing and racing outside the leader near the 700m. Was a beaten horse before the furlong.
8 2 O'REILLY MAGIC (CJ134) J Lloyd B Settled worse than midfield, 3 deep with cover. Finished off dourly.
9 6 SAMMY'S FORTUNE (CH204) T Clark B/TT Taken back from a wide gated & raced at the rear along the paint. Commenced to work into the race early in the straight but was unable to obtain clear running over the final 200m.
10 10 LUCKY ARMY (CL230) Y T Cheng H/TT Slow to begin then ridden along to improve, traveling 3-4 wide with cover with the backmakers. Struggled in the home straight.
11 12 DUKE'S VICTORY (CL262) M Du Plessis V Settled at the rear of the field but was wide about 4 deep without cover in the early and middle stages. Got some cover on the final circle but was a spent force early in the straight.
12 8 JOYFUL JOYFUL (CK284) M L Yeung B/H Had no luck posted 4 wide without cover in the early stages settling just behind the leaders, and thereafter taking up a 3 wide position. Never likely.
