1 5 SIKANDER (CG080) E Saint-Martin B-/SR1 Travelled well 3-back on fence in 4th about 4Ls off speed through first half, wider on final bend and 2Ls back in 4th, nice turn of foot to lead over 200 M out, ran on well.
2 11 SOPRANO (CE177) D Whyte B/TT 2-wide and 6Ls back in 4th at 1400 M mark, over 4Ls down in 8th taking home turn, 2Ls down in 4th at 200 M, kept on well enough for 2nd but never likely to grab winner.
3 7 ELECTRONICS SPUR (CE285) F Coetzee TT Box-seat position about 2Ls off pace in 2nd or 3rd and on fence until home turn, every chance when 1L down in 2nd but always a shade one-paced.
4 1 GREENESSY (CE001) Y T Cheng CP Worse than midfield about 7Ls off speed until 1000 M, 5Ls down in 9th taking home turn, stayed on fairly but never very likely to place.
5 3 VERY FIT (CE071) K L Chui TT Raced in snatches about 4Ls or 5Ls off pace in 5th or so, 3-wide and 4Ls down in 5th off home turn, always held by principals.
6 12 TIME SUPREME (CE012) C Munce B Slowest away and always in rear about 8Ls off pace early, 5Ls down in 10th taking final bend, made some modest late ground.
7 10 WONG'S FAVOURITE (CG131) G Schofield SR1 Mostly midfield, about 5Ls or 6Ls back in middle stages, closer turning for home, stayed on fairly without really threatening.
8 6 SUCCESSIVE GAINS (CC158) S K Sit B2 Soon struggling in rear, 3-wide no cover and under pressure and well behind at 1000 M, 7Ls down in 11th entering home straight, never troubled leaders.
9 4 RUM SHOT (CE206) C W Wong B Soon led on fence, 2Ls clear 800 M out, 1L up taking home turn, faded out once headed over 200 M out.
10 9 HEALTHY WEALTHY (CC067) A Delpech -- Caught 4-wide no cover early, got in 2-wide at 1400 M in midfield, 6Ls behind at 800 M, 4Ls down in 6th taking final turn, no impression.
11 2 LIBERAL'S CHOICE (CC345) B Prebble -- 3-wide no cover until the 1400 M, 2-wide and 2Ls down in 2nd from then until the 600 M, 1L down in 2nd on home turn, soon faded.
12 8 SYLLABUS (CD388) W C Marwing B/TT Never travelled well in rear, 3-wide no cover and well behind 1300 M out, fell back to 9Ls last at 600 M, very weak in homestretch.
