1 3 FLASHING FIGHTER (L281) H Y Yuen TT Began well amongst leaders, taken one-out-one-back to 3rd 900M out and 3L back in 4th over 500M out, renewed effort 3-wide into straight and hit the front 150M out despite shifting ground under pressure.
2 5 CLOUD NINE (L050) Z Purton -- Began moderately but soon joined leaders, took up running 900M out and rails run shortly afterwards, found no extra when headed 150M out.
3 12 LEGEND STAR (K271) L Hewitson B/TT Gradually settled in midfield on rail, switched out for a run 250M out, fought on steadily under pressure to snatch 3rd final strides.
4 1 SPEEDY SMARTIE (H108) K Teetan -- Jumped best from a wide barrier to gain slender lead off the rail, steadied up inside the 900M to be just under 1L back 2-wide, in similar position into straight but could only keep on at the same pace under pressure.
5 6 BITS SUPERSTAR (J362) C L Chau TT Close up early before settling over 3L back in 5th early in back straight, further away from lead approaching home bend, kept on steadily without quickening under pressure in straight.
6 2 OUTGATE (H113) Y L Chung TT Crowded for the first 150M settling 3-wide in last few, widest into home straight, ran on well inside final 150M near the centre of the track.
7 9 CLASSIC TRIPLE (L212) M L Yeung TT Soon prominent despite awkward start, settled within 3L of pace in 4th early in back straight gaining to 2L 3rd 650M out, saved ground on rail turning in but soon faded.
8 10 PERFECT TRIUMPH (L275) C Y Ho SR-/B1/TT Settled well back from a wide barrier, saved ground on the inside turning in, ran on well closing stages.
9 4 GAMEPLAYER ELITE (H356) H Bentley SR/TT Began fairly settling just worse than midfield in 8th, came under pressure rounding home bend, kept on steadily in straight.
10 8 A TIME FOR US (K475) J Orman B/TT Crowded at start dropping to rear on rail, saved ground turning in for home, kept on one pace.
11 11 HAPPY UNITED (H208) A Badel TT Inconvenienced at start before travelling 3-wide without cover in midfield, in similar situation rounding home bend and yielded ground into straight, made no further impression.
12 7 GOLDEN ELITE (L353) E C W Wong CP1 Taken well back from the widest barrier, remained tailed-off most of the way in back straight and around home bend, never a danger.
