1 2 PACHINKO (CH208) W C Marwing B/TT Lost ground at the start and soon 7Ls adrift in rear, edged closer turning in, helped by fast pace to lead out wide on the line.
2 11 WONDERFUL GAINS (CK050) D Whyte -- Parked behind fast early pace in midfield, 4Ls behind off last bend when held up for about 100 M, ran on strongly once clear, only just denied, unlucky.
3 13 STAY YOUNG (CD109) K C Leung -- In front rank within 1L of a fast tempo until home straight, stayed on gamely in the final 400 M, solid effort to take 3rd.
4 5 SOU MA TAM (CH253) J Victoire B Disputed early pace on fence and skipped 1L clear turning for home, headed about 200 M out and steadily faded out of the money.
5 1 TRUE INTELLIGENCE (CK060) O Doleuze -- Best away but opted to track the leading quartet on fence down back straight, led about 300 M out but headed about 100 M out, had his chance.
6 3 GO LUCKY GO (CJ320) Y T Cheng -- Better than midfield about 2-1/2Ls from the lead through to final bend, had his chance to at least place but lacked the turn of foot.
7 4 REGENCY KINGDOM (CK031) C Soumillon TT Midfield down backstretch, shuffled back slightly on the circle and never very dangerous in the final third.
8 9 GREAT UNITY (CJ209) G Mosse -- Always slightly worse than midfield at least 4Ls or 5Ls behind a strong pace.
9 7 AMITYSHIP (CK023) H W Lai B1/TT Always slightly worse than midfield at least 4Ls or 5Ls behind a strong pace, recovered very minor late ground down centre of the track.
10 10 LANCELOT (CJ271) M Du Plessis B1 Went back from wide gate, about 8Ls off the pace until straightening, one-paced to wrap up.
11 12 BE MY SONG (CH272) M L Yeung V/H Fractious in gates, disputed fast early tempo out 3-wide with cover, weakened in the straight. (Bled.)
12 14 SHINING DRAGON (CC181) M W Leung SR/V Trapped 4-wide no cover throughout but still pressed on to lead 800 M out, retreated swiftly from top of home straight.
13 6 ALL PROFIT (CK068) S K Sit -- Always well back at least 7Ls from the pace, never a factor.
14 8 GOLDEN BOY (CJ263) Z Purton B- Unacceptable performance, in touch down the back straight but very weak inside the final 600 M and eased down a long way out.
