1 8 LOYAL ARMY (CJ237) W C Marwing BO Led them along at a steady tempo, had plenty in hand passing 300 M and kept on strongly to the line. Won cosily.
2 6 MARVELLOUS (CH026) O Doleuze V/TT Went forward to obtain a handy position just behind leaders, travelled well to the straight, came with a determined challenge inside 350 M but unable to come to terms with the runaway winner.
3 2 SOHNA (CG183) M L Yeung B/TT1 Swiftly away, drifted back to mid-division 6Ls behind leaders, waited with until 350 M, finished off the race really well to be nearest on the line.
4 12 NEW IDEA (CK007) Y T Cheng B Raced ungenerously in early stages before settling down in a position on the rails behind midfield, gradually improving on the turn, stayed on reasonably well in straight for a non threatening 4th.
5 1 HAPPY PROGRESSION (CJ313) H W Lai B Away well enough but had to be pressed to hold a midfield position, always in touch within 4Ls of leader, didn't find another gear in straight and kept on one-paced to the line.
6 4 STAR LEGEND (CJ233) Z Purton -- Good jump from the inside barrier, rolled forward to be prominent behind leader, couldn't quicken when asked and just stayed on in a much laboured fashion before weakening inside 150 M.
7 11 RACING SPIRIT (CE105) S K Sit B/TT Allowed to drift back on jumping, trailed 6Ls behind leader in a 2-wide position near the rear, made some progress on straightening but was never threatening.
8 9 FEEL-SO-GOOD (CG056) J Winks CP Slow into stride, settled in a rearward position along the fence 6Ls behind leader, urged along passing 450 M, ran on only fairly.
9 10 HEALTHY CONTENDER (CJ342) K T Yeung -- Slow to begin, settled in the rear pack 8Ls off the pace, similar turning in, hung in under pressure on straightening and ran home disappointingly.
10 7 SCOOT DA LOOT (CH274) D Whyte B Rushed to the front early, tracked leader one out one back, couldn't sustain effort passing 300 M mark and dropped away rapidly.
11 3 AMO (CB125) J Lloyd -- No Comments on Running information for this horse.
