1 5 O'REILLY RALLY (CH266) B Prebble TT Pressed on from wide gate to cross to fence at 800 M and lead by 2Ls, going well on straightening, surged clear under hand riding, impressively.
2 4 LIFELINE PEGASUS (CH067) M Nunes TT Always in 2nd or 3rd place with cover within 2Ls of the speed from 1000 M to the 600 M, no chance with impressive winner but stayed on fine for 2nd.
3 10 BEAUTIFUL CHOICE (CH130) D Nikolic -- Midfield with cover about 4Ls off pace at 1000 M, briefly without cover on the circle and still midfield at top of home straight, stayed on okay for a place.
4 3 SUPER CEE JAY (CG289) K L Chui B Close to the fence in midfield about 4Ls off the lead through to home turn, ran on past a few tired rivals for 4th.
5 14 LEADER (CG012) C W Wong SR/TT1 Settled in rear group about 6Ls off pace down the back, wider on the circle and 5-wide into home straight when 6Ls off in 13th, ran on well past beaten rivals late.
6 7 LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) G Mosse B/TT No early speed, about 5Ls back in 10th at 800 M, midfield on straightening when 4-wide, moderate finish.
7 2 K-JACK (CG233) K T Yeung -- Raced prominently with cover, 2Ls back in 4th at the 700 M, under pressure 3Ls back in 5th off final turn, finished off at the same pace.
8 6 WIKI WIKI (CD205) A Delpech -- Away well, hugged rails in a forward position no worse than 3Ls off the speed through to home turn, had every chance to place but lacked the acceleration.
9 1 BULB TREASURE (CH048) K S Yu -- Always in midfield in cover and no better than 4Ls off the speed at any stage, posed no great threat.
10 12 CARELESS WHISPER (CE123) E Saint-Martin XB Slowest away, 5Ls back in 12th early on, still 12th about 6Ls back turning into the stretch, continued to give ground.
11 11 SURE HERO (CG122) W M Lai P- Worse than midfield on fence about 5Ls off pace through to home turn, never really got into it.
12 9 SIMPLY JOY (CH052) S Dye SR1 A neck off the early pace in 2nd but trapped 3-wide no cover from 800 M to home turn in 3rd while 2Ls off the speed, found nothing off the bridle.
13 13 GEM MASTER (CG235) Y T Cheng B/TT- No early pace and trailed field in rear about 7Ls off pace until home turn, never a factor.
14 8 HAPPY ENERGY (CH033) H W Lai B/XB Ridden along to hold a prominent position within 2Ls of the pace until the 800 M, lost ground on the circle and retreated 4Ls behind off final bend, well beaten.
