1 4 ISLAND SPRING (L238) T Queally B Couldn't go the early speed and settled towards the rear of the field, coursing 3-4 deep with cover. Ran on well towards the outside to claim the prize close to home.
2 11 LOTUS LOVE (L155) H W Lai V Raced prominently in 4th position, settling a tight 3 deep with cover. Took some time to wind up in the straight, hit the lead near the 50m, but was nabbed close to the post.
3 9 TREASURE GLITTER (M031) O Doleuze B Rated just behind midfield 3 wide with cover. Peeled out about 5 deep turning for home and ran on soundly.
4 13 SEIZE THE DAY (CJ152) W C Marwing SR-/V-/B2 Enjoyed an uncontested lead on the fence. Was overhauled over about the last 100m, but managed to stay in the frame.
5 5 ALP'S GLORY (L433) B Prebble B/TT Had a nice run in the race behind the leader in 3rd position on the rails. Didn't quicken over the last 200m after having every hope.
6 6 BAMBOO DANCE (M327) A Suborics TT- Camped close to midfield, 1 off with cover. Worked home fairly without menacing.
7 14 NEWSWIRE TOO (CJ040) T H So B Settled in 2nd last position, 2 deep with cover. Made some headway in the straight without threatening.

10 3 DARK SECRET (M213) Z Purton SR/TT Settled handy in the run, 2 deep with cover. Raced tight for some distance after the 700m, gave no response in the final stretch. Gave ground in the run to the wire.
11 12 DR UNION (CK105) W M Lai B Never likely after being posted 3-4 deep without cover for most of the trip while racing in about a midfield position. Tired quickly over the latter stages.
12 7 OCEAN BRIGHT (M270) T Clark B-/H-/TT Travelled in 3rd last position, 3 deep with cover. Weakened noticeable over the final furlong.
13 2 HAIR BEAUTY (N095) M L Yeung -- Settled worse than midfield the fence had cover. Struggled in the home straight.
