1 8 FRAMES DEPOT (CG118) D Whyte B Reasonable jump, severely checked near 1300 M but had a smooth run in midfield thereafter, quickened well on straightening to take the lead 150 M out, kept on to win with a little in hand.
2 9 MASTER MASTER (CH144) B Doyle V Slotted into a 2-wide position better than midfield, well placed in 4th turning for home, led briefly near 200 M but was soon collared by the winner, rallied but unable to peg back.
3 11 AIPODER IMAGE (CJ031) H W Lai B Slow to begin, crossed to the fence behind runners and remained in the rear to straight, took time to get going and did his best work towards the finish.
4 2 GRAND GENERAL (CJ113) K C Leung CP Broke well, given a waiting ride in a rearward position, 5Ls behind leaders making the turn, ran on steadily inside 300 M without looking dangerous.
5 12 SIMPLY THE BEST (CE014) M W Leung CP Travelled 3-wide in a position behind midfield, 4Ls down inside 400 M, kept on in straight without troubling the first three.
6 6 ZERO GRAVITY (CH037) M Chadwick TT Recovered from a slow start to race besides leader, briefly led in straight but found no extra inside 150 M.
7 1 GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY (CJ015) B Prebble B Went forward and took hold of a rail position early, eased back to midfield entering the back straight, ran on fairly inside 350 M but was hampered 150 M and lost his chance from that point.
8 4 DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) C W Wong TT Slow into stride, drifted back to the rear 8Ls off the pace but was unsettled in early stages, made a wide run into straight but couldn't quite pick up from off the pace.
9 7 COOL RUNNINGS (CK014) J Winks -- In midfield early but was shuffled back down the back straight, attempted a run down the inside on straightening but was severely checked near 200 M and didn't have a clear crack.
10 3 MAGIC PRACTITIONER (CK125) S K Sit B1 From a wide barrier used up plenty of early speed to cross for the lead, struggled to hold on early in straight and weakened rapidly from 200 M.
11 5 WEALTH SYNERGY (CJ133) M Du Plessis B Went forward to race in a prominent position behind leaders, under urge making the home turn, trapped on the inner rails and was checked near 250 M and 200 M, never recovered.
12 10 KING OF TURF (CJ102) M L Yeung B2/H/TT In a position better than midfield, unable to slot in and was forced 3-wide without cover throughout the race, under serious pressure to hold his position passing 500 M before dropping out quickly.
