1 4 MONARCH COUNTY (J421) J Orman B/TT Chased leader on inside, responded well under a vigorous ride in the straight, wrestled the lead late after a fierce duel with rival.
2 11 WINNING MONEY (J116) A Hamelin H/XB From draw 1 quickly moved to the front, set fast pace to straight, fought hard when challenged by rivals on both sides final 200M, headed near line.
3 8 FLYING WROTE (J290) M F Poon TT Chased leaders in the 4th spot, came with a strong looking run passing 300M, fought hard to the line and was beaten a short head only.
4 9 JOLLY COMPANION (H454) L Ferraris CP/TT On jumping was checked, settled near last 7Ls off the pace, had big task in hand top of straight, closed off fastest to claim 4th beaten a head.
5 1 FIND MY LOVE (H110) H Bowman B/TT Settled ahead of midfield, responded well from 250M but was held up for clear running over final 100M. Could be right there at the finish.
6 3 GENIUS BABY (K132) K C Leung CP-/B1/TT Reserved in mid-division 5Ls off the good pace, closed off steadily final 300M but not reach leaders.
7 2 THUNDER PRINCE (K017) Z Purton E/TT Jumped awkwardly, from wide draw taken back to second half of the field, stayed on final 300M without threat. (Jockey - unsuited by the pace of the event being run inside of standard time.)
8 6 AMAZING KID (K434) K Teetan -- Jumped fairly, obtained a 2-wide spot in midfield, driven 400M and responded fairly, steadied 150M then faded final stages.
9 7 WINNING DIAMOND (K216) M Chadwick -- Crowded shortly after the start, raced greenly in midfield throughout, failed to run on in the straight. (Mucus).
10 5 FLASH STAR (K431) E C W Wong TT1 Jumped only fairly and was severely checked after the start, ended up at the rear 8Ls back, proved difficult to ride when racing greenly in the straight and hung in. Never a threat to leaders.
11 12 SAME TO YOU (H057) Y L Chung H/P/TT Instructed to go forward on jumping from wide draw, tracked leader in a fast run race, gave ground passing 300M, weakened to last.
