1 | 6 | GREEN IN BLUE (CD117) | S Dye | B | Always well placed better than midfield, 4th wide and 3Ls off speed before kicking on at the 600 M, stayed on well to lead at the 200 M and driven out. |
2 | 10 | SPECIFIC SORCEROR (CA321) | D Whyte | B | Nice position in 6th out 2-wide with cover, 4Ls back and went for home at the 600 M, upsides with every chance at 250 M but flattened out a bit in the end. |
3 | 8 | BROWN BEAUTY (CC029) | O Doleuze | B-/CP1 | Game effort having been 3-wide no cover in places in midfield or worse at least 6Ls off pace until the 600 M, 4-wide off final bend but dug in well to take 3rd. |
4 | 9 | ONE EYE JACK (CD393) | G Mosse | B | Crossed from wide gate to be 1L off speed in 2nd at 1000 M, pressed on to lead 500 M out, headed by winner at the 200 M, one-paced thereafter and lost a place close home. |
5 | 5 | MEATH (CE143) | A Delpech | CP-/SR2/V2 | 4-back on fence about 5Ls off pace in 6th passing post 1st time, made an effort at the 500 M and drew closer but always outpaced by principals inside final 200 M. |
6 | 1 | ELFHELM (CC342) | C Soumillon | B | Settled in rear about 8Ls off pace and 2-wide early, sent on to go 4-wide and 5Ls off pace turning for home, stayed on fairly down centre of track, nearest finish. |
7 | 4 | ELEPHANT DANCE (CA391) | W M Lai | B | On fence and worse than midfield through first half, 6Ls back at 600 M in 8th or so, tried to make some headway in stretch but always held. |
8 | 12 | FEBURO (CE203) | F Coetzee | B | In rear and 2-wide about 9Ls off pace at halfway, still a fair way back turning for home, made some moderate late ground past beaten horses. |
9 | 11 | DURABLE (CE190) | C K Tong | -- | Led on fence before being headed about 1500 M out, box-seat trail 2Ls off pace until the 600 M, lost ground on the circle and always much too one-paced on the run-in. |
10 | 2 | SILVER MARK (CE226) | B Prebble | V/TT | No early speed and settled one from rear about 8Ls behind until the 600 M when ridden to try improve, never really got involved. |
11 | 3 | SPACED (CG034) | C W Wong | TT | Soon disputing the speed and a clear leader by 2Ls at 1200 M headed 500 M and faded out from top of home straight. |
12 | 7 | PRIMIATA (CG226) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | 3-back on fence 4Ls behind in 5th at 1000 M, lost position on the circle for home and very weak in home straight, eased final 200 M. |
