1 11 GOLDEN BRILLIANT (K347) A Badel B Away okay and restrained early to be 3 wide with cover, with the slow pace commenced a long wide surging run around 800m, knuckled down to the task in the final stages to get the job done.
2 8 STAR ELEGANCE (K536) K C Leung CP-/XB/B1 Tightened for room after a slow getaway, swooped late despite laying in over the final stages.
3 9 WINNING DATA (H230) K Teetan V Out with them and settled midfield 5Ls off the leader, responded nicely to jockey's strong urgings to feature in the placings.
4 5 AMAZING AWARD (J236) D B McMonagle B/TT Began swiftly and tracked pace, unable to slot in and face the breeze throughout, momentarily struck the front 150m out and boxed on solidly, despite a tough run.
5 3 HARMONY GALAXY (J266) H Bowman TT Jumped on terms and settled on the leader's back on the rail, switched towards the middle part of the track final stages and stayed on fairly well.
6 6 THE AZURE (J227) M F Poon -- Slow into stride and sat midfield the fence, saved ground throughout and travelled to the line okay when asked.
7 4 FORTUNE STAR (K003) L Ferraris B/TT Dragged back to near last from an awkward draw, came from well back with 6Ls to make up at the 400M and made some inroads.
8 2 STELLAR SWIFT (J139) H Bentley CP/TT One of the quickest away and positioned 5th one off the rail, came under pressure over final stages and was relatively one-paced to the finish.
9 7 TO INFINITY (G277) J Orman -- Inconvenienced and taken wider in the first turn, sat 3 wide with cover slightly behind midfield throughout, showed minor response over the final stages.
10 12 DIRIYA (K282) L Hewitson -- Began fast and dictated things in front, run peaked 150m out and knocked up quickly.
11 10 WAVE GARDEN (K209) R Kingscote XB/CP2/TT Began awkwardly and sat prominent outside the leader, overraced in the early stages, failed to sustain his run and compounded rapidly at the straight.
12 1 KING OF SELECTION (K397) C L Chau B/TT Forced wider on the track early stages and shuffled back to last 8Ls or so off the leader, made up several places out wide 800m out, soon tired out early in the straight.
