1 10 TRIUMPH (CC214) C W Wong V Disputed pace out 3-wide no cover at 1300 M, crossed to fence to lead by 1L at 1100 M and held a break until the final 200 M, driven out to just hang on.
2 1 PERSEVERANCE (CD243) B Prebble TT Settled in midfield about 4Ls or 5Ls from pace with cover until straightening, ran on strongly late but winning post came a few strides too soon.
3 8 SUPREME GOLD (CH205) D Whyte -- 2-wide and 3Ls back in 4th at 1000 M, still close up making final bend, kept on fairly for a place.
4 9 ABLE KNIGHT (CE079) D Beadman H/TT Had the run of the race on fence 2Ls off lead in 3rd until the home turn, given every chance to at least place but lacked acceleration.
5 7 SOLAR (CC198) Z Purton B/TT 3-wide without cover throughout, checked at 1300 M and worse than midfield over 5Ls off pace until halfway, made some headway swinging for home but one-paced in finish.
6 6 GALLANT FALCON (CD194) K Shea B-/V1/TT Slowly away and no early speed, in rear about 7Ls last at the 1000 M, briefly without cover at 500 M, still well back turning in, ran on fairly and never nearer.
7 11 CAPABILITY (CE094) Y T Cheng CP/TT 4-back on fence about 5Ls off speed in 8th or so at halfway and same off last bend, made some minor late ground.
8 5 MASTER DREAMER (CE293) W M Lai B 3-back on fence in midfield about 4Ls behind lead until the 600 M, unbalanced when bouncing off rail at 500 M, never troubled leaders in homestretch.
9 3 THAT'S IT (CE223) O Doleuze -- Mostly 3-wide with cover down the backstretch in 9th or so, 4-wide when 4Ls back in midfield turning for home, place prospects at the 200 M but no extra late.
10 4 LIVERBIRD (CE055) S K Sit B 2-wide and 1L down in 2nd at 1100 M, still in 2nd swinging for home, swamped inside final 200 M.
11 2 ROMANTIC GREEN (CG123) C K Tong -- Always in rear and at least 5Ls off the speed until the final 200 M, never passed more than one rival.
12 12 PILLOW KING (CE291) M Nunes B Slowest away and switched from widest gate to fence, never any better than 6Ls off pace at any stage.
