1 | 9 | TIME SUPREME (CE012) | O Doleuze | B | Average to begin (crowded), obtained 1 out 1 back spot with slow early pace, had run of race through middle stages, travelled fairly to turn, dashed well when clear passing 300 M and held on for strong win. |
2 | 1 | SYLLABUS (CD388) | D Whyte | B/TT | Lacked speed in early stages, taken back to slot in midfield position 2 wide 5Ls from pace, in traffic on turn, followed eventual winner in straight but lacked turn of foot to get closer. |
3 | 8 | VICTORY TREASURE (CE031) | S Dye | -- | Began reasonably, restrained when unable to get closer in early stages, raced in 4th last position 3 wide with cover, raced 6 to 7Ls of lead thereafter, made run between runners and made good ground when clear. |
4 | 2 | AMBITIOUS TYCOON (CB157) | W M Lai | -- | Average to begin, mustered speed to hold spot on fence 2Ls from lead, used nothing in run, came 2 wide on turn and tried hard in straight without threatening winner. |
5 | 5 | SEASONS TREASURE (CB310) | R Fradd | -- | Away fairly, drifted back to worse than midfield on rails, raced 5Ls off pace thereafter had good run to turn, stuck to fence in straight and battled strongly without 100% clear running in straight. |
6 | 3 | GOLD FIELD (CC096) | G Mosse | B | Crowded on jumping, took up rearward position 3rd last on rails 6 to 7Ls from lead, caught in traffic for most of straight and steadied at 100 M. Fair effort to make ground under circumstances. |
7 | 4 | MASTERY (CC176) | C Munce | TT | Jumped away with field, ridden up to take up forward spot 3 wide without cover early, raced 3 wide throughout always working, challenged until 300 M but wide run took its toll in straight and weakened out of it. |
8 | 11 | DIAMOND ERA (CE040) | C Brown | SR/TT | Away well, trapped wide from awkward draw, restrained to 2nd last 7Ls from pace, raced 2 wide between runners to turn, travelled well into straight, had field in front but made some ground late. |
9 | 7 | MY LANSON (CE336) | C Soumillon | SR1 | Average to begin, settled 2nd last, raced 4 wide without cover at rear of field, made 5 wide run on turn, battled away but set too greater task. (See Racing Incidents.) |
10 | 14 | VITALITY CHAMP (CD301) | A Delpech | -- | Began well, showed early speed but restrained to take trail when unable to slot in, raced 3 wide midfield 4Ls from front runner, tracked well to turn, unable to produce when placed under pressure. |
11 | 13 | COME HO CHOI (CE082) | Y T Cheng | B | Broke with field, showed good early speed to take up running, maintained length advantage but remained 2 wide, dictated terms until turn, tackled upon entering straight and found little from that point. |
12 | 10 | GREAT LEADER (CE032) | F Coetzee | B/TT | Average to begin, hard ridden to muster speed, drove through to hold inside running at leaders heels, levelled up entering straight, showed no turn of foot when placed under pressure. |
13 | 12 | CONNOISSEUR'S LOVE (CD234) | M W Leung | H | Broke with them, trapped wide from outside draw, 4 wide without cover throughout, had hard run to turn and consequently compounded in the straight. |
