1 1 MEANINGFUL DRAGON (H453) J Orman B Broke away swiftly and sat outside the leader, fought hard when being challenged to hold on to the victory.
2 11 GORGEOUS VICTORY (L087) Z Purton TT Jumped ok, sat midfield one off the rail, hit the line strongly when asked, just missed by a whisker.
3 9 VOYAGE BOSS (K321) H Y Yuen B Ridden along from the inside barrier to lead, stuck on to feature into the top 3.
4 7 POLAR PATCH (L211) C L Chau B/TT From an awkward draw caught out on a limb, boxed on solidly considering the tough run.
5 2 GHORGAN (K199) K C Leung H/TT One of quickest away from the stalls, raced keenly in the early stages, held up for a short distance early part of the straight, knuckled down to the task once clear.
6 10 AMO ERGO SUM (K394) K Teetan -- Away only fairly, from pole position settled in the box-seat trail, closed off just fairly when shaken up.
7 6 ROMANTIC LAOS (G476) C Y Ho CP/TT Sat against the fence midfield, briefly blocked for a run, stayed on ok, something further would suit.
8 3 SUNDAY'S SERENADE (J231) H Bowman B/TT Taken back from a wide draw, was severely checked in the middle stages, made some steady ground final stages.
9 4 AKERMANIS GOLD (L031) E Brown -- Away ok and sat slightly worse than midfield 3 wide with cover, stayed at the same pace to the line when asked.
10 5 CORNERSTONE (K519) Y L Chung CP/TT Moved across to the fence shortly after the start from a wide barrier, raced tight in the home straight and unable to be fully ridden out until the last 100M.
11 13 PERIDOT (K148) M F Poon H1/P1/TT1 Jumped awkwardly and ridden quietly from the tail of the field, overraced early stages, severely checked to avoid an accident around the 900M, showed limited response when asked.
12 12 SYNERGY EXPRESS (L252) A Badel -- Out with the rest and covered ground throughout in midfield, faded in the final stages.
13 8 PRESTIGE SUPERIOR (K383) H T Mo H/TT2 Dropped back to the rear with the speed underneath, severely checked near the 900M and soon got slightly detached from the field, swung home the widest, made no impression in the straight.
UR 14 SMILING FALCON (K459) H Bentley B Near the 900M suffered an injury and fell. (See Incident Report).
