1 13 LOVE ON EARTH (BT110) Y T Cheng -- Raced 2 and 3-wide about 5Ls off pace through to straight when travelling well, quickened up to go 3Ls down at 200 M, kept on well to lead final strides.
2 9 COSMO STAR (CA260) W C Marwing TT Wide in midfield early before being sent on to lead out 4-wide 900 M out, led out 3-wide entering straight, vulnerable 300 M out but rallied gamely and only caught final strides. (See Racing Incidents.)
3 7 ELEPHANT DANCE (CA391) E Legrix -- 6Ls off pace and 4-wide down back straight, 4Ls down but 5-wide turning for home and still well adrift 200 M out, finished final 200 M very strongly to be nearest at finish.
4 10 SONGS OF PRAISE (CB005) S Dye B/TT1 Unable to dominate early on and forced to settle outside pacesetting SWEETIE, still on pace turning in but caught flat-footed about 300 M out, kept on at same pace to line.
5 6 ALWAYS ON (BV274) E Saint-Martin -- Flew the start but dragged back to settle about 4Ls off pace out 4-wide, similarly placed turning for home and at 200 M marker, ran on well final stages to be nearest at finish.
6 4 FELICITY (CB079) A Marcus B1/TT1 Raced prominently, no worse than 2Ls off pace until home straight, loomed upsides leader and eventual runner-up COSMO STAR 300 M out, not follow through.
7 3 LUCKY DICE (CB101) W Woods SR1 At least 9Ls or 10Ls off pace out 2-wide early, hard ridden 6Ls down and 7-wide turning for home, responded to constant pressure to close off very well and be nearest at finish.

10 12 HOW FLUKE (CA340) M W Leung SR2 Always at least 3Ls to 4Ls off speed on or one off the fence until 400 M out, found nothing off bridle in straight and soon dropped right away.
11 5 MAJESTIC WARRIOR (BV234) W M Lai B Never on bridle racing 2-wide about 3Ls off pace down straight, under pressure to take closer turning for home, no extra from that point.
12 14 EN RAPPORT (BP122) K C Tsang B Awkwardly into stride losing 2Ls or 3Ls as a result, on fence but 10Ls off pace 1000 M out, never got any closer to leaders than that.
