1 11 QUEST FOR LOVE (CE242) D Whyte B Fair getaway, ended up 3Ls back on fence, had a quiet time on rails, followed nicely on circle, weaved between horses entering straight, finished over the top of them last 100 M to score handy win.
2 12 LE ROSSIGNOL (CG196) P H Lo B/TT Bounced out well, showed usual pace to take up running, controlled race in middle stages 1L clear, lifted a notch on circle, kicked hard in straight and only collared last 100 M.
3 1 CIRCULAR MACHINE (CG049) G Boss B2 No pace from outset, assumed position towards rear of field, raced 4-5Ls back but not helped by pace, still well back to bend, saved ground and warmed up last 100 M making good ground along inside for 3rd.
4 2 FAT DRAGON (CD130) M W Leung -- Moderately away, urged along to take closer order and travelled 3-wide 1 to 2Ls back without cover, had a tough run to bend, kept on nicely in straight to make frame.
5 7 KOWLOON FIT (CE247) A Delpech -- No real early pace, ended up in midfield running line, not really suited 4Ls back further away than usual, back in traffic on bend, progressed nicely last 150 M to be not far away at finish.
6 8 ADD THE FUN (CD308) O Doleuze B Bounced out, slotted into box seat behind leader, had ideal trip with steady tempo, travelled sweetly on turning, run opened but lacked dash to go on with it. Every chance.
7 5 ALL TIME HIGH (CG285) K L Chui CP/XB/TT Slow to go, couldn't lead as usual and posted 3-wide in midfield, raced 4Ls back throughout and not helped by slow pace, did share of work to bend, stick on evenly without threatening.
8 3 WELL NOTED (CG313) M Nunes -- Showed early pace to press on and assume spot outside leader, had a good run with moderate tempo, right there on turning, found little from 150 M and folded tamely.
9 6 ESPERANZA (CG159) W M Lai -- No pace from jump, drifted back to tail, raced 5-6Ls back in running line, harmed by slow tempo, swung wide on home turn, made only moderate progress in straight holding ground in run to line.
10 10 SUPER CHARGE (CC299) K T Yeung B- Amongst first into stride, held a prominent role 1 out 1 back, travelled well camped on back of slow speed, close enough on turning, found little in run home weakening in run to line. (See Racing Incidents.)
11 9 PRESENT TREASURE (CC077) Z Purton P/H/TT Standard jump, ended up 3-wide behind midfield but ran to outside on first turn, locked jam and continued to race on outside rail. Took no part thereafter. (See Racing incidents.)
