2 | 5 | TAMRA BLITZ (G237) | H Bowman | XB-/H/SR/CP1 | Always in touch tracking leaders, took a while to muster in the straight, stayed on well final 200M to go 2nd 50M out, nearest finish. |
3 | 2 | CHIU CHOW SPIRIT (H175) | A Badel | B/TT | Positioned ahead of midfield, driven along 500M making good progress early straight, briefly took 2nd inside 150M, found no extra late. |
4 | 11 | GOLDEN SAMURAI (H024) | Z Purton | B/TT | Jumped awkwardly, moved up to press leader on outside, had every chance turning for home, held 2nd until 150M, flattened late. |
5 | 7 | RATTAN KINGDOM (G035) | B Avdulla | B/XB/TT | Crowded at the start, settled in the back half of the field, 6Ls to make up top of straight, did best work final 200M. |

10 | 10 | FALLON (H219) | K De Melo | H/TT | Hampered at the start, settled near the rear, gave limited response over final 400M, never a threat. (Jockey reported his horse raced greenly throughout the event.) |
11 | 4 | STORM LEGEND (G139) | E C W Wong | -- | From wide draw taken back to the rear, switched wide 500M to challenge, ran past beaten horses only. Never reach contention. |
12 | 1 | ABSOLUTE SUNSHINE (H342) | K Teetan | CP1/TT1 | Jumped awkwardly and lost ground, towards the rear racing keenly early and middle stages, failed to respond turning for home. Made no impression on its debut. |
