1 8 DRAGON FOUR SEAS (J317) K C Leung B Badly crowded for room after the start, recovered to race in midfield, picked up well passing 400M, challenged for the lead 150M before gaining the upper hand final stages.
2 9 SOLAR RIVER (J308) C L Chau V-/CP1/TT Quickly away from draw 1, prompted the pace along the fence, took over top of straight, fought well to hold the lead until conceding final 50M.
3 4 JOYFUL TREASURE (J496) L Hewitson XB Jumped on terms and chased leaders along the 2-path, kept on steadily over final 400M for 3rd but not going the pace to challenge first two.
4 1 POSITIVE SMILE (J467) M L Yeung -- Tracked leaders on inside, loomed a threat top of the straight, was held up for clear running 300M-150M before keeping on under top weight to claim 4th.
5 2 GROOVY FEELING (J515) B Thompson TT Jumped only fairly, slotted into a 2-wide position ahead of midfield, swung wide from 550M then closed off mildly for 5th.
6 5 VIEW ALL THINGS (K101) K Teetan -- Bumped on jumping, settled 5Ls back in second half of the field, stayed on moderately final 300M. (Jockey : raced greenly, hung in throughout and in the Home Straight proved difficult to ride out.)
7 12 PERFECT PEACH (E488) M Chadwick P-/B2/TT Restrained after the jump, given a waiting ride towards the rear of the field, swung wide for home then kept on moderately to the line. Never a winning hope.
8 3 INNO CENTURY (K113) Z Purton -- Pressed forward, led from 1000M but was pressed by rivals from both sides, soon lost lead on straightening but fought hard to stay in contention, bumped 150M, no extra late.
9 11 CAMP FIRE (J259) K De Melo SR/TT Severely checked shortly after the start, ended up racing near last 7Ls back, raced keenly middle stages, no clear running 450M-250M before making some progress late.
10 7 LITTLE SQUID (K050) H T Mo -- Crowded shortly after the start, maintained a position in midfield along the fence, failed to finish off passing 400M, couldn't be ridden out final 50M.
11 10 TACTICAL COMMAND (H197) E C W Wong B Heavily restrained after the start, ended up in detached last, had big task in hand 400M but gave limited response only. (Jockey was told he had restrained his mount too long in the early stages which resulted in it losing ground.)
12 6 ROBOT KNIGHT (H464) Y L Chung TT Went forward pressing leaders, raced wide no cover for the majority of the event, checked 300M then weakened out of contention.
