1 9 KING OF REASON (M154) C Y Lui H Broke well, took early lead then settled for a trail, gained an inside run turning in and dashed to lead, kept on well to see off fast finishing rivals.
2 5 STERLING CITY (N152) B Prebble -- Positioned 3 wide around midfield, 5ls away from lead, enjoyed cover throughout, came wider turning and set out after leader, couldn't wear down margin.
3 6 FLASH KNIGHT (N173) T Clark H Taken back from a wide gate, raced at rear 3 wide more than 8Ls from top end, gradually improved on circle, came widest turning and made many lengths from well back to just miss 2nd.
4 8 GREEN EAGLE (N052) W C Marwing B Tracked pace 3ls away on rails, came 2 wide on circle, poised to strike turning but in traffic until 200m, made good ground when clear.
5 7 G-ONE WINNING (M392) D Whyte -- Dropped into ideal spot 1 out 1 back early, moved 3 wide without cover on circle, kept improving to close in on frontrunners and led briefly passing 400m, there until 100m.
6 10 GROOVY (L401) T Angland -- Tardy into stride, 6ls or so back in running line, improved 3 wide from 500m, made some ground in straight without looking likely.
7 4 KEEN WONGCHOY (L223) A Suborics B/H/TT Ended up 3 wide behind midfield from a tricky gate, had cover 6ls back, switched wider turning, made some progress but lacked usual big finish and just held ground final 200m.

9 3 BERIO (CJ202) T H So B Went forward as usual and ended up outside the leader first without cover, worked a touch to bend, didn't find as usual and gradually dropped out in straight (lame next day).
10 11 KING OF PATCH (N421) O Doleuze B1 Standard getaway, raced midfield on rails 4-5ls back, easy time to bend, didn't close off.
11 1 RIDE WITH THE WIND (L183) K C Ng B-/TT Ended up at rear from outside gate, best part of 10ls back on rails, still well back to bend, made minor progress passing a few tired ones late.
12 14 KING'S FOLKS (N296) H W Lai B Unable to get closer than 4 wide throughout, was 3ls back working without cover on circle, 2ls back turning in when hard run took toll and folded final 300m.
13 13 SIR EAGLES (M403) U Rispoli B Took a spot in midfield, 5ls or so away in midfield, fair run to turn, didn't see out journey and gradually faded.
14 2 CALIFORNIAVITALITY (P036) K C Leung TT1 Standard jump but rushed forward to take up running, kept tempo fair throughout, challenged and compounded soon after straightening. (Muco.)
