1 2 PLEZAYRE (CG116) K L Chui TT Always 1L off pace out 2-wide in 2nd or 3rd until home turn, quickened up to lead over 200 M out, ran on well.
2 12 RACING SPIRIT (CE105) H W Lai B/TT Towards rear early on about 5Ls off speed, 4Ls down in 6th turning for home, stayed on well for 2nd without threatening the winner.
3 6 OKEYDOKEY (CD190) O Doleuze B One out, one back position about 2Ls or so off pace in 4th until home turn, lacked the gears to get into the quinella but overhauled tired Keen Flyer for a place.
4 4 KEEN FLYER (CB330) C K Tong TT Led early on but always tended to hang out, about 1L clear until home turn, headed over 200 M out and missed out on a place late when tired.
5 10 MILLION CHASE (CD132) W M Lai B Midfield about 3Ls or 4Ls off speed until being unbalanced at 600 M, one-paced from top of home straight.
6 7 SUPER RED (CG230) Y T Cheng -- Had the box run on fence until home turn, one-paced thereafter.
7 3 HIGHLAND DAWN (CC138) D Whyte -- Crowded at start losing ground, got about 8Ls back at 700 M, never on terms.
8 11 WONDERFUL WORLD (CG133) H K Yim -- Never dangerous in rear bunch about 7Ls off the speed throughout.
9 5 SIR OCTAVIUS (CB427) G Mosse V Always without cover, 4Ls down in 7th with 700 M to race, forced wider again on the circle and struggling turning for home, found nothing.
10 8 PERFECT ATHLETE (CG276) M W Leung -- Steadied and lost ground 800 M out when 3Ls back in 5th, over 5Ls down turning for home, weakened.
11 9 VIVA FIGHTER (CG307) D Nikolic -- Broke okay but soon hanging out very wide and dropped back to 10Ls down in 11th turning for home, inauspicious debut.
12 1 KINGSTON MARBLE (CE244) K S Yu B Slowest away, always well behind in rear, performance deemed unacceptable.
