1 9 QUICK TOUCH (CJ196) Y T Cheng -- Away well, sat close to speed first without cover, did some work with reasonable sections, challenged turning and took over inside 250 M, kept on too well late.
2 5 CHATER WAY (CL093) Z Purton B2 Out in line, slotted into midfield, had good run 6Ls off top end, still had job to do when steadied on turn, closed hard late but couldn't wear down margin final 50 M.
3 6 IRISH JIG (CJ125) K C Leung XB/TT First to hit ground, angled back to be 3Ls away 3 wide with cover, did a bit in mid-section, improved on turn, peaked inside 200 M.
4 1 PRESTO (CJ048) D Beadman -- No early dash and positioned at rear 8 to 9Ls from top end, aided by good tempo, tracked through well on turning, made a solid effort last 200 M to make frame.
5 11 ST FEVRE (CL002) M Chadwick TT Handy from outset, enjoyed a good run on leaders back, right there turning, into clear from 300 M, didn't find extra and just held ground late.
6 10 MOONWALK (CL083) D Whyte -- Even break, sat behind speed 3 to 4Ls away in running line, had decent run to bend, in traffic at 300 M and steadied at 200 M, out when race was over.
7 4 PERFECT STYLE (CJ329) B Prebble -- Taken down to rails soon after start, raced 5Ls back in midfield, had a quiet run to turn, made steady progress but couldn't go up a notch, tightened late.
8 2 AASHIQ (CK175) J Lloyd -- Displayed usual speed to roll on and lead, set genuine sections in front, 1L advantage turning in, collared at 250 M and didn't find as expected. Below standard effort.
9 12 EXCEPTIONAL ART (CL174) H W Lai -- Average jump, ended up 3 wide behind midfield 6Ls off lead, awkwardly placed on circle, into clear at 400 M, lacked usual finish and just battled. (Lame next day.)
10 8 DOUBLE LUCK (CH239) C K Tong -- Faded back from a wide gate, raced 8Ls or so back 3 wide with cover at rear, checked at 850 M, still well back at 400 M, no real impression.
11 3 IRON FIST (CH143) W C Marwing TT Crowded early, regathered to press on, raced 3 wide without cover 2Ls off pace, worked hard to bend, gradually dropped out after a tough run.
12 13 OLE OLE (CK301) G Cheyne -- No early dash, planted 4 wide without cover for duration, set too much to do, weakened out in straight.
13 7 NEW GLORY (CK304) B Doyle -- Away nicely, lobbed ideal spot 1 out 1 back on speed, did a bit with decent speed on, niggled on turning and folded cheaply.
14 14 RIVER JORDAN (CG194) C W Wong B No speed and drifted back from a wide alley, 8Ls back on rails, never likely.
