1 5 TAI SING YEH (CL037) B Prebble -- Soon crossed to a 2-wide position in midfield after the start, always going well and came with a strong run inside 300 M to strike the front near 50 M. Won with total authority.
2 1 HOLEY DOLLAR (CK118) D Beadman H Showed good early speed to cross over and took them along unchallenged, drew nicely clear at 200 M, kept on but was unable to repel the impressive winner inside final 50 M.
3 11 CHARMGOLD (CK002) H W Lai TT Jumped well but was restrained to a position behind midfield, used little in running and was a fairway back turning for home, got a run down the outside and stayed on well to go 3rd close home.
4 4 LOYAL ARMY (CJ237) A Suborics BO Broke well then taken to a midfield spot 5Ls back, battled on in the straight but ran out of it final 100 M and lost 3rd close home.
5 12 MR VIGOROUS (CL189) T H So -- Soon in last after a sluggish start, along the fence 9 to 10Ls off leader, took time to muster in straight and began to pick up over the final 200 M for some late impression.
6 6 GOOD STRIKE (CJ351) G Mosse B Caught wide till 600 M, close enough turning in, had his chance and ran on but couldn't find the extra to seriously challenge.
7 9 CENTURY SUPER STAR (CE070) W M Lai BO Taken back from draw 12 and settled in the rear group 10Ls away, had much to do turning in and progressed steadily from the rear inside 300 M without threatening.
8 10 GRAND PROFIT (CK412) Y T Cheng TT Placed ahead of midfield 3 to 4Ls off leader but stayed on only one paced in straight despite being crowded for room near 150 M.
9 8 POLYGOLD (CK309) B Doyle -- Towards the rear over 8Ls behind, made some progress final 300 M but never threatened.
10 2 NUGGET WARRIOR (CK147) M L Yeung -- Jumped ordinary then pushed forward to a one out one back position, couldn't sustain his run in straight and weakened quickly over the final 100 M.
11 3 PLAN B (CJ123) J Victoire B/TT Broke well and tracked leader prominently, under pressure over the home turn and found no extra final 200 M.
12 7 ONE WEE ACORN (CK143) J Lloyd -- Settled behind midfield after an awkward start, looked to be making some progress in early straight but slowed down nearing 200 M, eased. (Jockey said horse appeared to falter in its action.)
