1 5 SOLAR WONDER (L034) H W Lai V Settled third in the run, 2 wide without cover. Closed off gamely over the final 100m and grabbed the lead close to home.
2 4 HEALTHY MANNER (L151) D Beadman -- Worked forward to lead along the fence, setting good fractions in the early stages. Was taken on after the 800m and despite being well clear near the 200m, was nailed close to the post.
3 7 FANTASTIC GUY (CH025) Z Purton B Parked midfield, along the rail. Ran on steadily in the home straight.
4 6 WINNING PAL (CJ138) O Doleuze B Settled at the tail of the field 1 off with cover. Made a forward move around runners racing 4 wide after the 700m. Plodded home to finish in the frame.
5 3 FERRABOSCO (L217) D Whyte B/SR/TT Had no excuses after enjoying the run of the race behind the leader along the fence. Whacked away in the run to the finish line.
6 9 GRANDWAY FLYER (CK302) Y T Cheng B/H Copped a check early in the race and settled worse than midfield, 2 wide with cover. Worked home fairly without ever threatening.
7 10 MASTER DRAGON (L137) M Guyon B/TT Camped midfield, 1 off with cover. Kept on one paced in the straight before tiring over the latter stages.
8 12 SAMBUOYANT (CE172) M W Leung -- Settled at the rear of the field, 1 off with cover. Sent forward after the 800m and looped the field, positioning outside the leader. Was gassed after the 200m.
9 2 WIN WIN FELLOWSHIP (L175) K C Leung -- Raced at the rear of the field along the paint. Laboured over the final furlong failing to close off.
10 1 SUPER GALILEO (L061) G Mosse B Raced behind midfield 3 wide with cover. Struggled in the final stretch.
11 11 KING GALILEO (L028) W M Lai CP Throughout the race travelled wide and without cover in about a midfield position. Never likely.
