1 6 MASTER KOCHANWONG (S008) D Whyte CP/TT Broke well but quickly left rail to race in one-off position behind leader. Began forward move 500m, hit front 300m and pulled clear, one-paced final stages, just held.
2 4 SMART MAN (P103) T Berry B/H/XB/TT Badly crowded out start, dropping to near rear but well away from fence. Switched widest turning for home and finished off strongly to just miss.
3 5 CAGA FORCE (S160) H Bowman -- Jumped well, ridden to maintain forward position between leaders moving to fence entering turn. Got inside run in straight, looked chance 200m, boxed on but no extra.
4 7 GERONIMO MEADOW (N226) C K Tong B/TT Taken across behind runners from wide draw, settling at rear of field. Took inside run entering straight, finished off nicely while shifting out closing stages.
5 1 SPEEDYGONZALEZ (N412) B Prebble B/H/TT Began fairly, taken gradually to fence, saved ground turn, ran on fairly in straight without looking dangerous.
6 12 SUPER ABUNDANTE (S004) H W Lai B- Jumped with field, ridden along early, settling one-back, one-off before turn. Looked chance top of straight but gave ground from 200m.
7 9 DEHERE'S THE LOVE (P305) J Moreira B Ridden along to obtain forward position and trapped wide without cover. Raced tightly around turn, swung wide into straight, kept on one-paced.
8 11 KING OF REASON (M154) C Y Lui P2 No early pace, settling along fence towards the rear. Improved position around turn, stayed on fence in straight, one-paced.
9 2 MULTIVICTORY (P254) M Chadwick B/TT Jumped awkwardly, slow into stride, hard ridden but failed to muster and became detached from field. Last into straight, ran past beaten horses.
10 8 AMBITIOUS KING (P242) K Teetan B/TT Pressed forward from wide draw to lead on settling, cutting in to rail before turn. Collared shortly after entering straight and weakened. (Lame left front. Unacceptable performance)
11 10 METALLIC STAR (N309) K C Ng H/TT Bumped and unbalanced start, recovered and ridden forward between horses to sit behind pace makers. Raced tightly around turn gave ground gradually in straight.
12 3 GROOVY (L401) T H So -- Began fairly, not pressed and taken in at rear of field in one-off position. Got further back turning for home and never likely.
