1 1 SNIPPETYIYEA (CB311) S Dye -- Niggled a bit early to stay in touch on fence about 2Ls off speed. Switched off rail straightening up to challenge, kept finding extra to prevail closing stages.
2 9 GLORY HERO (CA057) A Marcus BO Jumped only fairly, worked forward to share lead one off rail passing 1000 M. Kept on well in home straight but found winner too strong concluding stages.
3 4 GOLDEN AIR (BV105) D Whyte V-/P2 Smartest away, quickly pinched rail to make running. Joined near the 1000 M, stayed on well in straight and held every chance until overhauled by first pair close home.
4 3 BOND (BT065) G Mosse SR Wide at rear. Shifted in towards rail 600 M out and moved closer, 5Ls down turning in, made steady ground final 200 M to be nearest at finish.
5 7 WINNING PLEASURE (CA240) E Legrix B-/BO1 Settled in mid-division on fence. Kept on same pace in home straight when drifting out.
6 5 REAL WINNER (CB051) H K Yim -- Ridden along throughout the race but failed to muster speed and dropped steadily towards rear of midfield. Only headway in home straight passing beaten runners.
7 10 TOP LIGHT (BP219) C Williams BO-/B2 Midfield throughout, unable to quicken in straight.
8 2 KIMBER (BP155) S K Sit -- Pushed along and was not far away early, soon outpaced and dropped to midfield. Under pressure 500 M out when dropping back further, made no impression in straight.
9 6 TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) W M Lai -- Soon outpaced towards rear. Never in contention.
10 11 BEAMING RIVER (CB078) Y T Cheng SR- Wide without cover towards rear throughout, hardly any improvement in straight.
11 8 VICTORY MASTER (CA223) D Dunn B/TT Pushed along early to travel 3rd just behind leaders. Struggled to keep up after the 600 M, dropped away after straightening.
12 12 ACE OF PACE (BV131) K H Ting -- Ridden along early from awkward barrier but outpaced at the back, covered a lot of ground and trailed field 600 M out.
