2 2 ONE STEP AHEAD (BT033) W C Marwing B Ridden early but soon outpaced at rear, shifted across to fence after 1000 M. Crept closer along fence to be 3-1/2Ls down on straightening, kept running on final 200 M but no threat to winner.
3 4 RUN AND WIN (CA131) K H Ting B2 Always on the pace, equal lead from 400 M before having difficulty to keep up with leader after straightening. Shifted out a bit 200 M out, no extra when losing 2nd spot near the line.
4 11 ALF (BT058) D Whyte -- 3Ls behind lead around midfield on fence. Improved rounding home bend to be 2Ls adrift straightening up, one paced before commencing to tire final stages.
5 12 EVER GLORY (CA199) D Dunn B/TT Slowest and awkward on exiting and was well back. Crept closer on inner rounding home turn to be 5Ls down turning in, moderate late headway passing tired runners.

7 3 SPLENDID STAR (CA222) C Williams -- Broke well and shared lead early, steadily eased to travel 3 wide in midfield 3 or 4Ls off pace 800 M out. Stayed same in straight before getting tired inside final 100 M.

9 10 EXPEDIENT (BT046) S K Sit -- Driven to dispute lead, unable to keep up passing the 600 M and dropped right out.
10 9 BOBO DUCK (CA063) Y T Cheng V Not far away early out wide, steadily eased and shifted inwards toward rear of midfield going into back stretch. Dropped back further before home bend, no impression in home straight.
