1 3 ROMANTIC CASH (S319) K C Leung H/TT Hard ridden to lead on settling, setting good pace. Headed around turn but retook lead on straightening, kicked clear 200m, held off late challenge.
2 7 GOLDEN CHOPSTICKS (P120) H W Lai -- Shifted across behind runners from wide draw and last on settling. Last into straight, taken to centre track and finished strongly.
3 1 LANG TAI SING (S280) C Schofield B/TT1 Bumped start, ridden forward, settling behind leader. Took rails run in straight and boxed on gamely though unable to close gap.
4 2 NORTHERN FALLS (T354) Z Purton B1 Urged forward between horses to grab one-off, one-back position to straight. Shaken up passing 400m and boxed on gamely.
5 12 RED KYLIN (T052) K Teetan -- Ridden along to obtain forward position, settling three-back, one-off. Swung wide into straight but only one-paced.
6 4 IMPERIAL ROME (N012) R Fourie TT No early pace, then taken to rail four-back from leader. Stayed on rail entering straight and ran on fairly to be closest at finish.
7 5 TANGO FIRE (S081) N Rawiller B/H Outpaced early, dropping to rear but away from fence. Put under pressure turning for home and ran on fairly.

9 9 TEN FLAMES (S447) T H So V Began fairly, ridden forward but wide, then steadied 1000m. Improved position around turn, wide in straight, gave ground final stages.
10 10 FOREVER RED (T365) K C Ng P Quickly into stride, ridden to hold position outside leader before edging ahead around turn. Headed 400m but kept on fairly to 200m before tiring.
11 8 SECRET AGENT (P388) G Benoist B Jumped OK but not pushed, racing behind midfield but wide. Taken even wider in straight but found little though hampered 200m.
