1 8 HIGH VOLATILITY (V081) K Teetan -- Pressed along on jumping from wide draw, crossed to lead 850M, was tackled from 300M, kept finding to hold rival at bay.
2 6 INVINCIBLE MISSILE (C037) Z Purton B1/TT Jumped on terms, moved up to track leader along 2-path, loomed a strong chance 300M, tried hard but couldn't reel in winner.
3 11 LOOKING GOOD (B256) G van Niekerk B Niggled along to be chasing leaders along the 3-path, no cover from 900M, kept battling to the line but always held by first 2.
4 9 CIRCUIT HASSLER (A041) C Y Ho B/H/TT Slow to muster, ended up 3-wide in mid-division, ran on moderately on straightening, just missed 3rd but never looked like troubling the winner.
5 1 WAR ROOM (B414) M Harley -- From wide draw taken across behind runners, raced as the back marker until making wide move 550M, kept up his work until 200M, no extra late stages.
6 5 GOOD BEAUTY (B384) M Chadwick CP/TT Slightly slow out, held up behind mid-division on inside, ran on final 400M without menacing.
7 12 CHAIRMAN LO (C062) J Moreira B Taken back from wide barrier, held up at the back 5-6Ls from leader, brought wide 400M, stayed on fairly to line, no impression.
8 7 MIGHTY POWER (C094) M L Yeung -- Settled down midfield along the fence, commenced to travel keenly 750M, just over 3Ls off the pace home turn, kept on same pace in straight, not reach leaders.
9 10 CONFUCIUS DAY (C272) C Schofield TT Away fairly, held up 3-wide towards the rear, wide into straight, gave limited response and only past a few beaten ones.
10 3 GREEN CARD (V126) U Rispoli B/TT Settled just behind leaders, didn't respond to riding and gave ground noticeably turning home. (Unacceptable Performance / Trainer : would have the horse ridden more quietly wherever possible in future.)
11 2 WECARE N PROSPER (C320) T H So B Restrained in midfield, proved difficult to settle early stages, lacked further response in straight and struggled to the line.
12 4 SURREALISM (C285) K C Leung -- Up with early pace then restrained to sit ahead of midfield, soon weakened on straightening, eased 150M when no chance.
