1 8 WAVY PEAK (CD083) G Boss V/TT Box-seated in 3rd or 4th on fence through to home straight when going well, peeled out to lead 250 M out, went clear, comfortably.
2 5 SHINING DRAGON (CC181) P H Lo SR/V Crossed from wide gate to lead on fence by 2Ls at the 1100 M, over-raced early in places, headed by winner 250 M out, all out to hang on for 2nd.
3 1 FREEBIRD (CC319) C K Tong BO Awkward break, flanked leader 2Ls back in 2nd at 1100 M, hung out turning for home when 1L down, tired late but just about hung on for 3rd.
4 13 SPICY HOT (CH064) S K Sit TT- 3-back on fence 4Ls off speed in 5th at 1000 M, same position and under pressure off last bend, had every chance to place but lacked a turn of foot.
5 3 DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) B Prebble -- 3-wide with cover in 9th at halfway about 4Ls off pace, 4-wide (widest of all) turning for home when 5Ls down, one-paced in the finish.
6 9 LIGHTNING MOUNT (CH082) K L Chui B/TT No early pace, about 5Ls back in 10th at the 1000 M and slightly further back on straightening, did little to reduce the leeway.
7 2 MULTI-WIN SPIRIT (CG137) M Nunes XB/TT 3-wide with cover 900 M out when 3Ls back in midfield, shuffled back and tapped for toe off last bend, disappointing finish.
8 11 FAST WINNER (CG140) E Saint-Martin -- 6Ls back in 12th at the 1000 M, 3-wide with cover 600 M out, 6Ls back turning for home, one-paced thereafter.

11 14 SINOSPIEL (CG003) M Du Plessis B Nicely placed 4Ls back in 4th with cover at 1000 M, struggling to lie up turning for home, plodding finish.
12 10 WATCHMAN (CB327) Z Purton B/SR No Comments on Running information for this horse.
13 4 PALIO KING (CG073) G Mosse TT Midfield with cover 900 M out, about 5Ls down and starting to toil off last bend, found zero under pressure.
14 7 DIAMOND FLYER (CG199) O Doleuze TT Lost 3Ls at the start with a very messy break, 4-back on fence when 5Ls off pace at halfway, struggling turning in, dropped right out. (Lame next day.)
