1 10 OYSTER (CL146) W M Lai P/TT Quickly into stride. Took seat behind leaders from 800M. Ideal position to strike in the straight. Battled determinedly to prevail near the post.
2 4 TRACK LIGHTNING (M029) T Angland B/H1 Pressed early but trapped wide first turn. Parked 2-wide outside leader from the Rock. Every chance in the straight and ran on strongly. Just failed to repel the winner close home.
3 6 CHATER POWER (CG312) C Y Ho B/TT In leading section on fence to home straight. Kept on well but lacked the finishing touch of the front pair final stages.
4 8 LUCKY RECORD (CL429) M L Yeung TT Slow to begin. Improved gradually along the fence and reached midfield at the Rock. Shifted out and found clear run 300M. Finished off the race satisfactorily.
5 2 SMART CHOICE (CK368) H W Lai B/TT Taken to 2-wide at rear. Swung wide and was 7Ls down on straightening. Covered good ground home straight.
6 5 BRILLIANT ONE (CG212) W C Marwing -- Towards rear on fence to home straight. Made steady headway to the line.
7 9 SUPER CAGA (CK054) Y T Cheng B Hard ridden early but failed to muster. Travelled wide and without cover in midfield back straight. Progressed to 3-wide behind leaders home turn but couldn't sustain final 200M.
8 11 GRANDFIELD (CJ250) G Cheyne B 2-wide towards rear to home straight. Made up minor ground late.
9 12 RACING LEGEND (CK390) C K Tong B/TT2 Ahead of midfield on fence to home straight. Couldn't turn up a notch when the race got serious and weakened final 100M.
10 1 MY TIME (CJ310) D Whyte -- 2-wide ahead of midfield early and middle stages. Switched 5-wide turning into home. Failed to respond when asked.
11 3 MULTIPROUD (CL301) J Lloyd TT Shaken up early but insufficient speed to cross. Ended up 3-wide without cover at midfield back straight. Never progressed from there.
12 7 EN MASSE (CL398) D Beadman B 2-wide at midfield early. Severely checked to behind midfield from 1000M. Similar position home turn. Ran on fairly top of home straight. Got traffic inside 150M.
