2 | 9 | TATTENHALL (BV053) | H K Yim | B-/P1 | Settled 2 to 3Ls off pace racing 2 and 3-wide in 6th place until home turn, hard ridden to improve into joint-second 200 M out, never looked like catching winner. |
3 | 2 | CHIRAG (BT199) | W Woods | P | Raced 3-wide towards rear about 6Ls off lead until 800 M out, crept a little closer final bend to be 4Ls off pace, stayed on through beaten horses final stages to be nearest finish. |
4 | 11 | GRACIOUS FELLOW (CA265) | K H Ting | -- | On fence and 4Ls off speed in 7th through first half of race, niggled 800 M out to take closer order, 2Ls down entering straight, stayed on at one-pace final 300 M. |
5 | 5 | SINCERE AND FAITH (BT102) | A Suborics | P | 3Ls down and 3-wide and never further than 1L off speed through until home stretch, failed to follow through final 400 M. |
6 | 10 | LUCKY CHARM (BP252) | O Doleuze | -- | Settled 2-wide 2Ls off speed in 5th place throughout, travelled well entering straight, not quicken up when it mattered. |

8 | 7 | WAIALAE WIN (CB012) | E Saint-Martin | B | Slowest away, 6Ls off speed on fence until final bend, 4Ls down entering straight, found very little off bridle final stages. |
9 | 1 | PROFIT DAY (BV335) | W C Marwing | -- | Raced 2-wide and always about a neck off leader until 400 M out, dropped away tamely in home stretch. |
