1 | 8 | WISE CHOICE (CB297) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Always 4 and 5-wide without cover down backstretch and 4Ls off pace, 6-wide turning for home but quickened up to be a neck 200 M out, led about 100 M out and asserted close home. |
2 | 2 | WINWIN COMBO (CB277) | M Cahill | -- | Covered up 2-wide and 3Ls or 4Ls off lead through to home straight, picked up well to lead approaching 200 M, grabbed by winner about 150 M out, no extra. |
3 | 1 | NAMJONG SPIRIT (BV183) | S Dye | -- | Had the run of the race on the fence 2Ls off lead through to stretch but always tended to over-race a bit, disputing lead and with every chance 300 M out, no extra final stages. |
4 | 3 | STOIC (BT155) | G Mosse | B | Travelled well 3Ls or 4Ls off pace on fence until home turn, finished off along inisde but never looked like threatening principals. |
5 | 14 | LION ROCK (CA224) | W M Lai | -- | Caught 4-wide without cover about 3Ls off speed 800 M out, turned for home racing 5-wide, 1L off pace 200 M out and kept on at same pace to line. |
6 | 9 | EARL GREY (CA251) | G Schofield | B | Tucked in 2-wide and about 3Ls off pace through to home straight when travelling well, didn't have a clear run until 200 M out, finished off fairly well but too late. |
7 | 12 | QUICK STEP (CA074) | W C Marwing | -- | Always about 4-wide and 5Ls off leaders and one from rear down backstretch, 7-wide into homestretch, 3Ls down 200 M out, one-paced to line. |
8 | 6 | SALUZI (CB147) | E Legrix | B1 | Held up towards rear about 5Ls off pace and 3-wide before being steadied 800 M out, travelled well turning for home, no clear run until 200 M out when switched out wider, too late. |
9 | 5 | MASTER MAGIC (BP193) | A Marcus | -- | Never worse than 3-wide and 2Ls or 3Ls off pace through to home straight, right there and with every chance 300 M out, 1L down 200 M out, weakened further. |
10 | 4 | SUCCESSFUL SPIRIT (BV226) | F Coetzee | B/TT | Checked on exiting gates, remained 3-wide and 4Ls off pace until homestretch, rather one-paced on run-in. |
11 | 7 | SAMMY TREASURE (CA324) | R Quinn | B | 2-wide 1L off leader in 2nd position from 1200 M out to top of stretch, swamped and beaten well over 300 M out. |
11 | 13 | PRINCELY HORSE (CB027) | M W Leung | SR-/B1 | Awkwardly away and forced to race without cover out 6-wide down the back and 6Ls off pace, extremely wide (8-wide) turning for home, no hope thereafter. |
13 | 11 | KING'S PATROL (CB097) | K H Ting | -- | Tracked leading pair out 3-wide and about 2Ls behind, under pressure on straightening and quickly dropped right out of it. |
14 | 10 | PO ON WIN (CA282) | D Dunn | SR/V | Led on fence by 1L 1200 M out, still leading by half a length on straightening, very quickly swamped and beaten over 300 M out. |
