1 12 NINJA DERBY (H339) M Chadwick H/TT Led early stages before sitting back behind leaders passing 1400M, little change to the turn, quickened past weakening leader inside 200M, kept on well to register first win in Hong Kong.
2 7 GO GO GO (H196) Z Purton P/TT Settled down ahead of midfield, not far off from leaders home turn, wide into straight, fought well to the line but was always held by winner final stages.
3 6 TURTLE AGAIN (H083) C L Chau B/TT Reserved in midfield along the inside, switched away from fence nearing 400M, chased hard to go 3rd near 100M, held by first two towards the line.
4 3 FRUITY WARRIOR (J035) H Bowman TT Chased leaders, taken wide after 1000M and was left racing wide without cover, challenged for the lead early straight but run ended 150M and faded late stages.
5 10 SUNNY BABY (E166) B Thompson CP Soon crossed to the fence and assumed a position in midfield, in touch with leaders turning home but couldn't quicken to challenge.
6 4 HARRY'S HERO (H332) E C W Wong E Held up behind mid-division 2-wide, 5-6Ls off leader on settling, wide into straight, kept on only fairly final 300M.
7 9 KEEN UNITY (G298) K Teetan V/TT Settled towards the rear, driven along passing 500M, ran home fairly to the line. Never a winning hope. (Jockey : raced "flat" / small wound to RH pastern.)
8 11 CASA LEGEND (G126) M F Poon P/TT From draw 12 dropped back to race at the rear 9Ls off the pace, crowded 450M when improving into a doubtful run, couldn't quicken enough in the home straight.
9 8 SPLENDID STAR (G026) M L Yeung TT- Jumped fairly, taken back from wide draw and was given a patient ride at the rear, pushed along 500M, gave limited response on straightening.
10 5 VULCANUS (J150) K H Chan B Strolled to the lead, pressed by rival middle stages, headed nearing 200M, no extra and weakened rapidly final stages.
11 2 TIGER AND GOLD (J064) Y L Chung B Settled towards the rear 7Ls off the pace, had nothing to offer turning home. Never involved.
