1 12 RED FORTUNE (CE192) C K Tong B Nicely placed 2-wide and 2Ls back in 4th at 1300 M, similar position taking final bend, kept on well to lead 100 M out, comfortably.
2 8 HONG KONG GEM (CE114) G Mosse -- Raced 4 and 5 positions back on fence, 6Ls off pace at halfway but about 4Ls back in midfield turning for home, stayed on fairly well for 2nd but lacked winner's dash.
3 11 SWEETIE (CB036) O Doleuze B/TT Crowded start, 4Ls off pace in midfield 3-wide with cover early, left without cover from 900 M to home turn when over 2Ls back in 3rd, led 200 M out but headed 100 M later when one-paced.
4 1 WATCHMAN (CB327) B Prebble B/SR 2-wide and 2Ls back in 3rd at 1200 M, on fence about 1L down in 2nd at final turn with every chance, failed to quicken up and well held final 100 M.
5 10 MIRACLE DRAGON (CD254) S Dye V-/CP2/H Raced 3 and 4-back on fence about 5Ls off pace around mid-division through first half, slightly closer off home turn, stayed on at same pace.
6 9 NEW TAMAR (CE156) Y T Cheng B Two from rear about 8Ls off speed early, driven along to get a little nearer taking home turn, never troubled principals.
7 2 BIG WINNER (CD229) K L Chui B/TT 2-wide and 6Ls back in 9th at 1200 M, struggling 3-wide and same margin behind on straightening for the line, no great impression.
8 7 NATURAL ECHO (CB326) A Starke V Near rear about 8Ls off pace at 1200 M, 6Ls down in 9th at home turn, 4Ls back in midfield at 200 M but made no extra ground.

10 3 X-SPEED (CC341) C W Wong B Nicely placed 3Ls off pace in 4th at 1000 M, on fence and similar margin back in 5th taking home turn, weakened over 200 M out.
10 6 CHALLENGER (CE138) D Nikolic TT Caught 3-wide no cover at 1200 M and sent on to dispute speed at 1000 M out 2-wide, ridden along to stay within 1L of pace turning for home, dropped away.
12 4 NAMJONG MONEY (CG176) K S Yu B Awkwardly away losing ground, 6Ls last at 1300 M, soon struggling about 10Ls last down the back, poor effort.
