1 1 EAGLE REGIMENT (M011) B Prebble -- Chased leader and always in touch, showed impressive acceleration passing 300M, got up inside 100M, eased off once in control.
2 6 DANE PATROL (CL078) C W Wong B/TT Sped off and crossed to lead along the Stands' rail, going strongly into final 400M, headed inside 100M but finished well clear of the rest.
3 4 SPACE RACE (M222) M Chadwick TT Never far off leader, shifted out badly when put to pressure 400M out causing interference to rivals, kept on for 3rd but was never going to trouble the first two.
4 14 YOUNG TURBO (CL416) M L Yeung -- In mid-division, urged along halfway, unbalanced when bumped near 300M, kept on for a non-threatening 4th.
5 5 HEARTLAND (M332) J Lloyd -- Prominently placed in the flight chasing leader, kept on steadily under pressure but not making headway to the leaders, hampered near 200M but made little difference to the result.
6 7 SUPREME TAIJI (CL065) D Whyte B Checked at the start, soon recovered to race in midpack, not much room passing 250M and was checked, one-paced over the final stages.
7 2 JOYFUL LUCK (M223) O Doleuze -- Near the rear and placed towards the outside of the field, made limited progress from off the pace.
8 12 MING HOI GLORY (M020) G Cheyne H/CP Dropped back to the rear, 5-6Ls back in middle stages, hung out and proved difficult to ride nearing 400M, no impression.
9 13 SHARE OF GOLD (CL295) W M Lai B Began awkwardly, steadied near 900M and raced further back in the field, not quickened when put to pressure, tight for room late stages. (Distressed after race.)
10 9 PURE FORCE (M298) Y T Cheng -- Behind midfield, outpaced in middle stages, didn't have the clearest of runs final 400M but never going the pace to challenge.
11 10 LUCKY RED (CJ059) B Doyle -- Within 3Ls of the leader, moved up to challenge passing halfway, checked near 300M, lost momentum and never got back into contention.
12 11 STALLION SUPREME (CJ268) M W Leung -- Behind midfield, not quickened going into final 400M, never a factor.
13 8 SUPER BROTHER (M299) Z Purton B1/TT1 Behind midfield racing along the stands' rail, weakened inside 300M.
14 3 GREEN ZONE (M302) T Angland -- Behind midfield, under pressure halfway, outpaced final 300M.
