1 4 BEST FIT (M135) M Chadwick TT1 Slightly slow out, quickly recovered to take up running holding less than a length’s advantage, flanked by eventual runner-ups closing stages but fought on well to defy their late challenges.
2 13 CHINA GOOD (L258) B Doyle SR Began fairly, gradually settled in last few, commenced move from halfway out picking up nicely to just fail to get up on line.
3 1 CHEETAH BOY (L192) Z Purton B/H Broke well, settled just off the speed in 3rd or 4th, came to challenge inside final 300 M, unable to draw level throughout closing stages.
4 3 THE PRINCE (L241) G Mosse B Began moderately, not too far off about 2Ls off the lead, badly jostled and lost position about 600 M out, soon recovered but wasn’t good enough to be threatening.
5 14 NOBLE VISION (M040) G Cheyne CP-/B1 Began fairly, settled in rear, hampered over 600 M out, similar onto course proper when shifting in for a clear run, fought on steadily but without threatening the leading trio.
6 11 MY MELODY (CJ157) O Doleuze B/XB/TT Settled in midfield travelling down the centre of the track without cover, ran home steadily under pressure without quickening.
7 5 BREEZE OF LUCK (L124) B Prebble -- Slightly slow out, settled in last few, picked up steadily along grandstand rails to reach midfield approaching course proper, kept on steadily without quickening.
8 6 EPATANT (L349) K C Leung -- Travelled well within 2Ls of pace, came under pressure to hold position passing the 300 M mark, faded gradually.
9 12 SPICY SHRIMP (L067) N Callan B/H/TT Began with others, settled in better than midfield within 3Ls of pace, faded under pressure inside final 300 M.
10 10 MEGA CASTLE (L333) C K Tong B1 Travelled just worse than midfield, jostled and lost ground about 600 M out, shifted in towards the centre of the track for a clear run coming onto course proper, ran home one-paced under pressure.
11 9 HAPPY SCORE (M041) M L Yeung -- Began awkwardly, travelled mainly in rear of midfield in the middle of the track before dropping to last few onto course proper, no further impression.

13 8 GAIN POWER (M092) W C Marwing H1/TT1 Soon struggling.
