1 4 JUGGERNAUT (CJ019) J Victoire B/TT Settled in 2nd just outside leader from 1200 M to home turn, led 250 M out and always doing enough to score.
2 1 HANNAH KING PRAWN (CJ178) K L Chui TT 4-back along rails in 7th about 5Ls from the pace at halfway, stayed on best of the rest in the straight but never likely to catch the winner.
3 3 BIG KAHUNA (CG177) D Whyte B 3-back on rails in 4th or 5th about 4Ls behind the pace until final bend, had his chance to figure in the quinella but lacked the turn of foot.
4 9 JOHNSON (CJ305) K T Yeung B Box-seated but over-raced and unbalanced through early stages, 2Ls back in 3rd and with strong place chances off last turn, one-paced to finish. (Jockey warned re riding near 1500 M.)
5 5 KAISER'S CHOIX (CE305) Z Purton XB 4Ls back in 6th out 2-wide at the 1000 M and same margin behind turning in, made some moderate late ground for 5th.
6 10 CHATER DE LAGO (CG246) B Prebble B/TT Taken back to 10th about 7Ls from the speed at the 1200 M and similarly placed into last section, made some late ground, never nearer.
7 2 BRILLIANT FLASH (CE042) G Mosse B Went back as usual, 5Ls back in 9th on rails at 1200 M, 7Ls to make up rounding final corner, retrieved a little late ground but no danger.
8 8 TRIUMPH (CC214) M Du Plessis V 3-back the rails in 5th about 4Ls from the pace until home straight, given every chance to place but lacked the gears.
9 11 MY MELODY (CJ157) Y T Cheng B/TT Nicely placed in the 'one-out-one-back' position in 4th or 5th and 2Ls or 3Ls off pace until home straight, tame finish given his nice passage.
10 6 MAGIC TURBO (CJ098) B Doyle SR Went back from wide gate, 8Ls or 9Ls last until home straight, never likely.
11 12 SHINING DRAGON (CC181) M L Yeung SR/V Led by 1L at the 1200 M, about a neck to the good at top of home straight, soon headed and quickly faded out.
12 7 EMBRACES (CH175) W M Lai B Caught 3-wide no cover throughout towards rear and at least 7Ls from the pace, never on terms.
