1 | 2 | BRILLIANT FLASH (CE042) | O Doleuze | B | On fence and 6Ls down in 7th at 1200 M, hindered before turning 3-wide for home, ran on very strongly down the centre to lead in final strides. |
2 | 9 | STRIKING MASCOT (CH154) | F Coetzee | B | 5Ls back in 5th out 2-wide at 1200 M, 4Ls back in 4th on straightening, picked up well to lead briefly inside final 50 M but headed in final strides. |
3 | 12 | DECAGONAL (CH244) | W M Lai | B/TT | 2-wide and 3Ls back in 3rd at 1200 M, kicked on to lead 600 M out and 1L clear turning in, headed inside final 50 M and lost 2nd in shadows of post. |
4 | 1 | WONDERFUL BLESSING (CE198) | B Prebble | B/TT | 8Ls back in 10th at 1200 M and much the same swinging for home out 4-deep, ran on well late, nearest at the finish. |
5 | 11 | BATURO (CH029) | C W Wong | B1 | Nicely placed about 2Ls from the pace on fence in 2nd or 3rd until taking final turn, given every chance to place but could only stay on at same pace. |
6 | 3 | MARVELLOUS (CH026) | E Saint-Martin | B/TT | Checked exiting gates, 7Ls back in 8th out 2-wide at 1200 M and only marginally closer off home bend, kept on without quickening. |
7 | 8 | SOHNA (CG183) | D Beadman | B | 10Ls last at 1200 M and not much better when turning for home out widest (5-wide), made up only moderate ground late. |
8 | 5 | EMBRACES (CH175) | A Delpech | B1 | Over-raced early on, in rear on fence about 8Ls or so from the lead until the home straight, made some late ground but posed no great threat. |
9 | 7 | THAT'S IT (CE223) | Z Purton | -- | 4Ls down on fence in 4th at 1200 M, keen in places, same margin off in 5th swinging for home, very one-paced. |
10 | 6 | MIRACULOUS (CE115) | P H Lo | -- | Pressed on out wide to lead on fence by 2Ls at 1200 M, slowed tempo and headed 600 M out, 1L down in 2nd off final turn, swamped at the 200 M. |
11 | 4 | CLASSA WIN (CA115) | H W Lai | B | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
12 | 10 | MONTY (CH164) | M Nunes | B | Midfield on fence about 5Ls back in 6th at the 1200 M, tight for room and unbalanced into home straight, closed off tamely. |
