1 12 MARVEL TRIBE (S142) M L Yeung B Broke well and pushed out to ensure he led. Still in front turning for home. Pressured by the 2nd horse down the straight, but maintained his strong pace and held on late.
2 8 PINGWU SPARK (A262) K C Leung -- Pushed forward from the wide draw to eventually settle 2nd, 0.5L off the leader and 1 off the fence. Never started moving until 300m and only used the stick in last 150m. Strong run to the line, but couldn't get the winner.
3 5 FIFTY FIFTY (A287) K Teetan -- Cruised forward from the jump to settle midfield. Had a lap full of horse early in the straight and forced a run at 300m. Huge run from that point, despite getting whip caught at 150m, and was rapidly gaining on leading pair late.
4 10 BIG BANG BONG (V186) J Moreira -- Bumped and unbalanced on jumping, but recovered well to sit 3rd/4th on the fence. Came off heels at 250m for a run. Stayed on well late and was making up ground on the leaders late.
5 4 JOLLY JOLLY (T087) S Clipperton V Slow away and eased back to get cover towards the rear of the field. Widest on the turn and stayed on fairly in the straight, without ever threatening.
6 9 RISE HIGH (A238) B Prebble XB1 Eased forward to settle just behind midfield. Raced keen and came off heels at 1100m. Held up at 350m. Stayed on solidly in the straight.
7 7 SUPER LIFELINE (P158) H T Mo B Bumped on jumping and taken up to eventually settle 3rd/4th, 3 wide with no cover. Joint leader at 200m, but had nothing left turning for home and dropped out in the straight.
8 2 SACRED ELIXIR (A401) Z Purton H1/TT1 Fairly away before settling comfortably, worse than midfield. Awkward on heels 800m. Did his best work late and looking for more suitable race over longer.
9 11 HEALTHY JOYFUL (S358) A Badel B/H/TT Cruised forward early to settle around midfield. Copped a nasty bump at 350m and awkward on heels at 100m, but was always 1 paced in the straight.
10 13 GREEN CARD (V126) T Berry CP/TT Indecisive early, before eventually finding a spot midfield, 3-4 wide with limited cover. Never kicked in the straight.
11 1 HANG'S DECISION (T262) C Y Ho CP/H Dropped back early from the wide draw to sit at the rear of the field, and made no impact from there.
12 3 MIDNIGHT RATTLER (T371) D Whyte -- Pressed forward early to settle forward of midfield, 1 off the fence. Crowded at 350m, but was already fading out.
13 6 FIGHT HERO (T186) U Rispoli H Eased back early to sit towards the rear of the field. Stayed there and had no impact on the race.
14 14 HAPPY AGILITY (T184) C Schofield V/TT Drifted back through the field early to sit last. Never improved from that point.
