1 6 RUMBA KING (M172) P Strydom -- Endured a tough run racing on the speed 4 wide without cover. Eventually wore down the leader to come up trumps over the final 100m.
2 9 SUPER CAGA (CK054) Y T Cheng CP-/B2 Led along the fence. Shot well clear early in the straight but was slowly mowed down over the final 150 M.
3 12 KA KA'S PROSPERITY (CK270) W M Lai XB-/H1 Camped just off midfield 3 deep with cover. Closed off soundly.

5 10 EKRAAR EMPEROR (M081) M L Yeung TT1 Stalked the leaders, 1 off with cover. Battled away in the straight, tiring over the concluding stages.

10 11 PASSIONATE (L356) H W Lai -- Coursed 3wide and without cover whilst travelling with the leading trio. Never a factor.
