1 4 BEAR MACHO (CG152) O Doleuze -- Unbalanced at 900 M when 2-wide and 3Ls back in 5th, 3-wide off home turn in same position, picked up well to lead 50 M out, did enough.
2 7 GLORY YEARS (CE023) E Saint-Martin B Had the box-seat position on fence 2Ls off pace until home turn, 1L down at 300 M and led 150 M out, headed about 100 M later, held on for 2nd.
3 9 BULLDOZER (CG062) G Mosse B-/TT1 Slowly away, soon about 6Ls off pace in 8th, crowded at 600 M but 5Ls off pace turning for home, stayed on strongly late to take 3rd on the line.
4 1 JOLLY GOOD FORTUNE (CD274) D Nikolic -- Held a lead of no more than 1L until home turn, headed about 150 M out and lost out on a place in final stride.
5 3 MR COOL (CD071) K W Tsui B/TT Midfield with cover about 5Ls off pace until home turn, stayed on fairly without seriously threatening a place, never nearer.
6 10 HORACE'S CHOICE (CH169) S Dye -- Caught 3-wide no cover early, 2-wide no worse than 1L off pace in 2nd until home turn, one-paced inside final 200 M to miss out on a place.
7 6 SIAMERIC TE SPECSO (CE171) B Prebble TT 3-back the fence about 4Ls off pace in midfield until home turn, over 2Ls off speed in 5th at the 200 M, no extra. (Lame following day.)
8 12 SALUT BEAUTE (CB189) K L Chui TT About 8Ls last out 2-wide until home turn when switched out to challenge, made some minor late ground.
9 8 THE WORLD OF LOVE (CC066) F Coetzee -- Checked at 800 M on fence when 6Ls behind lead in 9th or so, same margin back into home turn, made no great improvement.
10 2 WEALTHY TREASURE (CC270) H K Yim -- 2-wide and 2Ls off speed in 4th through to home straight, faded out steadily.
11 5 MERIDIAN PRIDE (CH057) W M Lai B Slowly away, three from rear about 6Ls from the speed until home turn, no impression.
12 11 BRAVE KNIGHT (CC131) C W Wong -- Always in rear, 8Ls last until the 600 M on fence, never passed a horse.
