1 7 TURF GOLD (CD342) D Whyte B Slowest away and soon at rear, 7Ls last 600 M out, a little close and 4-wide taking home turn, quickened up nicely to lead at 100 M, always doing enough to win.
2 11 PLEASURE PLEASURE (CD271) G Mosse B/TT Close up in midfield 3-wide with cover, keen when 2Ls down in 7th at 800 M, same position taking home turn when short of room, clear at 300 M, ran on well but always held by winner.
3 1 STAR PRODIGY (CD294) S Dye -- 3-wide with cover slightly worse than midfield at least 3Ls behind leader through to home straight, 1L down in 4th at the 200 M, couldn't get any closer.
4 12 WIN DANCER (CC357) F Coetzee B-/TT1 2-wide and 1L in 2nd from 1000 M to homestretch, briefly led 300 M out, headed at 200 M, one-paced and done for a place inside final 50 M.
5 8 MILLENNIUM SUPREME (BV228) H W Lai CP/TT No better than 4Ls off pace on fence in 10th or so until home straight, ran on fairly late without seriously threatening a place.
6 3 TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) W M Lai B 4-wide no cover 2Ls off pace in 5th at 1000 M, 2Ls down in 3rd at final bend, led briefly at the 200 M, headed 100 M out, one-paced thereafter and lost out on a place.
7 4 GOLD MASTER (CC365) C Brown TT 3Ls off pace in midfield at 1000 M, similarly placed on final bend, bumped at 200 M out, outpaced by principals.
8 13 PREMIER BURG (CC137) Y T Cheng B/TT Slowly away, one from rear about 6Ls off pace at 800 M, didn't have much room entering home straight when 4Ls back in 11th on inside, never troubled leaders.
9 10 BE MY BRIDE (CD318) B Prebble BO About 3Ls off pace in midfield at 1000 M, keen at 600 M, short of room when a little further back in 9th or so making home turn, about 2Ls down in 9th at 200 M, no further impression.
10 6 TIMBER CITY (CC031) H K Yim B Crossed from widest gate to lead on fence at 900 M by 1L, niggled along to maintain advantage entering home straight, very weak inside final 200 M.
11 2 SUPER SPECIAL (CE225) E Saint-Martin H Had the run of the race 2Ls off the pace until home straight, folded tamely.
12 9 MAXIMUM JOY (CA025) M W Leung CP-/B2 Mostly 3 and 4-wide with cover in rear about 5Ls off pace through first half of race, 5-wide (widest of all) taking home turn in 13th, made little impression down centre of track.
13 5 BAYVIEW LAD (CC148) S Sanders B 3-back on fence about 3Ls back in mid-pack until the 600 M, lost position from then on, over 4Ls back towards rear at 300 M, faded out. (Blood in trachea.)
14 14 SHINING LIGHT (CD119) C W Wong PC-/B2 Always 3-wide no cover but very prominent about 1L off the speed in 3rd or so until straightening for home, swamped at 200 M.
