1 9 WYNDAM EASY (CB273) G Mosse -- Led 1200 M out, 1L clear on fence at 1000 M, 2Ls clear off home turn and at 200 M, always in command.
2 4 BEARCAT (CC038) F Coetzee -- Flew the start but restrained to settle 2Ls off pace in 3rd at 1000 M, still 2Ls off pace in 2nd at top of home straight, kept on all right but never looked like reeling in the winner.
3 2 KIDDYLAND (CC063) D Whyte SR- Always prominent, 3Ls behind leader and 2-wide in 4th at 1000 M and same into home straight, always held by Quinella pair on the run-in and just hung on for a place.
4 1 DASHING WINNER (CA018) W Woods SR Slowly away, 7Ls off pace on fence in 10th at 1000 M and much the same into the home straight, was the only one to stay on from off the pace, did it well, barely missed a place.
5 11 DANEHILL WARRIOR (CB452) M Kinane -- 3Ls behind on fence in 5th at 1000 M, niggled along to maintain this position at 700 M, 5Ls down in 5th off home turn, kept on only at the one pace.
6 3 DELIGHTFUL WIN (CC154) G Schofield TT 4Ls off pace in 6th at the 1000 M, about 5Ls down in 6th entering straight, stayed on at same pace, bled from both nostrils.
7 7 NOBLE CHAMPION (CC287) P H Lo -- 3-wide without cover in 8th when 5Ls off the speed at 1000 M, struggling to keep up when 7Ls down and 3-wide in 9th off home turn, faded steadily.
8 8 MILITARY OPTION (CD237) K C Tsang -- Knuckled and checked at start, 8Ls off pace and 2-wide in 12th at 1000 M, similarly placed into home straight, back-pedalled.
9 5 CHIU CHOW BROTHER (CA216) S Dye -- Slowly away, about 9Ls or 10Ls off pace and 2-wide in last through to home straight, plodded on past a few tired rivals.
9 14 HARVEST (CD125) H K Yim SR Raced too freely early on when 1L 2nd out 2-wide at the 1000 M, struggling to hold position before home turn, beaten 300 M out.
11 10 HAPPY MOMENTUM (BV264) W M Lai -- 5Ls behind leader in 7th on fence at 1000 M, 6Ls down and under pressure off final bend, drifted further back.
12 12 RED POWER (CD077) K S Yu P/H Caught 4-deep without cover when 6Ls off pace in 9th at 1000 M, off the bridle to keep up 600 M out, 4-wide into straight when already beaten, dropped out.
13 13 TRAVEL LEADER (CD226) S K Sit -- Crowded on fence at 1200 M when about 9Ls off pace in rear, never a factor, always detached.
14 6 BEAR DOMINANCE (CD235) R Fradd B 6Ls off pace and 2-wide in 10th at 1000 M, hung out on circle and steadily drifted back to 9Ls down and 5-wide into home straight, soon eased down.
