1 11 NOBLE DELUXE (CM063) J Moreira TT Dropped back from a wide gate, raced behind midfield 5ls or so back, appreciated early speed, gained a nice trail in on circle, let down strongly to lead at 200m and hold off challengers.
2 9 TRAVEL BRAND (N112) M L Yeung B/H2/TT No early speed and settled back towards rear 6-7ls back, aided by early speed, still well back with plenty to do coming wider turning, dashed sharply in straight making many lengths to just miss out.
3 10 LUCKY FOREVER (CM058) C K Tong SR-/B Took a nice position 3-4ls back on rails in midfield, enjoyed a quiet trip to turn, closed off well between horses final 300m to take place.
4 2 LIBERATOR (CL240) K Teetan B/TT Went forward and held spot 1 out 1 back, even run in mid-section after pace settled, in there with a place chance turning, battled on solidly in straight to make frame.
5 7 SHINY DAY (CM131) T H So -- Showed speed and rolled forward as usual to take up running, worked a bit in first section, didn't get much peace from midpoint but kept rolling to bend, headed inside 200m but stayed on evenly.
6 12 WRATH OF FIRE (CL420) K C Leung -- Average beginning and taken back to rear, settled 7-8ls back, made a move 3 wide without cover from midpoint, in the mix turning but run ended final 200m and did a good job to stay on all the same.
7 3 VICTOR DELIGHT (CM121) Z Purton TT Began well, had enough pace to hold leaders back, worked a bit early, fair run thereafter, right there turning, gained inside runs but could not capitalize and was flat final 200m.
8 8 BEAUTY TOUCH (N001) H W Lai H/TT Not much early pace raced behind midfield 6ls back in running line, still well back to turn, came wider and made some minor ground in straight without threatening.
9 6 BANKSTERS BONUS (N113) W M Lai SR Slotted into a midfield role 3-4ls back in running line, had ideal run in mid-section, in traffic and held up to 100m, just fair when clear but race was over.
10 5 REAL GENEROUS (CM193) K C Ng B/H/TT No early pace, shared rear 7ls or more from top end, early pace suited, ridden along from 400m to improve, made a little late ground in straight but never likely (see racing incidents).
11 4 BUSINESS AS USUAL (CM057) D Whyte H Pressed forward from a wide alley and used a bit to get outside leader, not given much peace when horses improved around at midpoint, struggling turning and dripped out when work took toll.
12 1 IRIAN (CL187) O Doleuze B/H Away with them, checked when trying to hold spot early, raced behind midfield 5ls of so back, early pace helped, niggled along turning, found little in run to line.
