1 12 O'REILLY RALLY (CH266) B Prebble TT Got a fair way behind, 6Ls down in 10th with 600 M to race, 4-wide off final turn when 5Ls back in midfield, quickened up very well to lead inside final 50 M, value for greater margin.
2 6 MONEY MAN (CG115) C K Tong CP- Hard ridden to lead on fence from widest gate at the 900 M by 1L, headed at top of home straight but rallied to lead again 250 M out, collared by classy winner final 50 M, solid effort.
3 2 ALWAYS GIGGLE (CG086) G Mosse B Always well behind in rear and covering plenty of ground down backstretch, 5-wide without cover at 900 M when 6Ls back in 13th, no closer turning for home, finished strongly out wide for a place.
4 10 SUPER MUSIC (CG248) A Delpech B/TT Good performance despite tough trip, prominent but caught wide early, pressed on 4-wide no cover to lead at top of stretch, headed about 250 M out, lost a place in closing stages.
5 8 STEP TO WIN (CG167) K T Yeung B/TT Handy position with cover about 2Ls off pace early, fired up at the 800 M but still 2Ls off pace in 4th taking final bend, 1L down in 3rd at the 200 M, no extra final 100 M.
6 1 WIN AGAIN (CD371) D Whyte B/SR1 Mostly midfield with cover between 3Ls and 4Ls off pace until home turn, kept on fairly without posing a serious threat in the straight.
7 5 MELLIFLUOUS (CH212) O Doleuze XB/H1 Always prominent but always wanted to hang in, 1L off pace in 2nd out 2-wide at the 800 M, 1L back in 3rd off home turn, weakened inside final 200 M.
8 9 LUCKY FRUIT (CG026) D Nikolic -- Got well back, 9Ls last at the 900 M mark, 6Ls down in 12th turning for home, never likely to improve better than mid-division.
9 14 DR POSSI (CE288) M W Leung -- Always towards rear on the fence, about 5Ls off pace when tight for room at the 800 M, same position on straightening, always well held.
10 11 ASIAN CITRUS (CH246) F Coetzee -- Had the box-seat position about 2Ls off pace on fence in 4th from 800 M to home bend, very one-paced thereafter.
11 13 BROWN BEAR (CH125) Y T Cheng -- No early pace and held rails position in midfield about 4Ls off speed until home turn, failed to quicken up with the principals.
12 4 BE MY SONG (CH272) W M Lai B1 Awkward break and raced ungenerously with head up down the back while racing about 5Ls off pace and worse than midfield, always remained a similar distance from the pace.
13 3 LUMINOUS (CE300) S K Sit -- Better than midfield about 2Ls off pace down the backstretch, left 3-wide without cover at the 600 M, petered out once straightened for home.
14 7 SHY BALDY (CH168) E Saint-Martin -- Unacceptable performance, raced freely without cover down the back straight, 5Ls back in 10th at the 800 M, slipped back to last entering homestretch and soon eased down.
