1 | 10 | FUJIAN PRINCE (CE006) | D Whyte | SR/TT | Prominent but 3-wide no cover early, soon got cover and 2Ls down in 3rd at 800 M, 1L down in 2nd at top of homestretch and 200 M out, kept on dourly to lead inside final strides. |
2 | 14 | CHARMING SPEEDY (CE186) | Y T Cheng | B/TT1 | Slowly away, pressed on out 3-wide no cover to lead at 900 M, 1L clear turning for home and at 200 M, grabbed by winner a few strides from post. |
3 | 12 | RED WINE HONEY (CE287) | S Dye | B | 3-back on fence about 3Ls or 4Ls off speed in midfield through to home turn when driven along, stayed on fairly well for a place. |
4 | 9 | TRAVEL LEADER (CD226) | A Delpech | -- | Stumbled at start, recovered to take box run on fence about 2Ls off speed through to home turn in 4th or 5th, plugged on at same pace. |
5 | 6 | SILVER MARK (CE226) | B Prebble | B-/V1/TT1 | Didn't break fluently, keen at 1000 M when 3-wide with cover in midfield about 4Ls off speed, no closer turning for home, always held by principals. |
6 | 1 | QUALITY-QUALITY (CE250) | K L Chui | -- | Soon switched from wide gate to take 4-back on fence position worse than midfield about 5Ls off speed until home turn, stayed on only evenly. |
6 | 13 | FORTUNE GOLD (CD343) | G Schofield | -- | 2-wide and no better than midfield about 5Ls from the lead from 1200 M to home turn, made some minor late ground without really threatening. |
8 | 2 | SOLAR POWER (CE047) | H W Lai | B | Always prominent but left 3-wide no cover when 2Ls off speed in 5th at 800 M, similarly placed turning for home and at 200 M, tired through concluding stages. |
9 | 11 | NICKU NICKU (CC372) | M Kinane | SR | Raced 3-deep and 8Ls last down the backstretch, still well behind and 4-wide turning for home, made up a little ground past tired rivals. (See Racing Incidents.) |
10 | 3 | DANSOLDE (CE157) | R Fradd | V | 3-wide with cover and 5Ls off speed in 10th at 1000 M, 5-wide (widest of all) turning for home and same margin behind, plugged on slowly. |
11 | 8 | FRAMES DEPOT (CG118) | C Munce | -- | Well placed but keen early 2-wide and 3Ls back in 6th, niggled along at 600 M and 4Ls down and struggling taking home turn, faded out. |
12 | 5 | CHERISHED (CB160) | F Coetzee | TT | Always in rear bunch and never better than 5Ls or 6Ls off pace at any stage. |
13 | 7 | OPTIC KING (CE139) | C K Tong | B-/CP1 | Soon led by 1L on fence, headed at 900 M, 1L down in 3rd and toiling at top of homestretch, dropped out very quickly. |
