1 5 KARBRIDGE (CK251) C Y Ho TT Began well in front early, gradually taken back to 4th in forward of mid-division, responded well inside final 200 M to take charge about 70 M out.
2 4 KHARU (CK411) H W Lai -- Settled just worse than midfield, inconvenienced behind runners early in straight, finished off race nicely inside final 200 M, did best work late.
3 3 MEGABUCKS (CJ301) B Doyle -- Began moderately from an awkward draw, ridden to muster speed to take up running going up Rock, held a length's advantage turning in, tiring when overhauled about 100 M out.
4 1 CLASSIC NAVIGATOR (CD330) W M Lai TT Began with others, travelled with leaders mainly two off the rails settling 1-out-1-back far side, held same turning in, fought hard to peg back tiring leader 200 M out, unable to sustain effort and overhauled by late finishers close home.
5 6 NOT QUITE PERFECT (CG254) M L Yeung B/TT Settled 3-wide without cover in midfield, kept on same pace before producing late impression nearing home.
6 7 FLOREAT DAYS (L280) M Chadwick TT- Began fairly, settled one from last on rails, found nil under pressure in the run home.
7 8 ESPERANZA (CG159) C K Tong H/TT Soon dropped to the rear of field, never seen with a chance.
