1 6 SILENT DRAGON (CG200) D Whyte CP/XB Led by half a length early on, always travelling very well on stands' rail, pulled clear under gentle riding, easily.
2 1 BULB KING (CD303) W M Lai -- Raced 2Ls behind SILENT DRAGON on stands' rail around midfield until the 200 M, dropped by the winner final 200 M but did just enough for 2nd.
3 5 MAGIC CHARIOT (CH094) O Doleuze B/H/TT Disputing 3rd early a neck behind the speed, vying for the lead 400 M out, kept on at same pace late and only just tipped out of quinella.
4 3 BOOMING CITY (CE325) K T Yeung B/TT Disputed early pace down centre of track and still bang there 400 M out, couldn't keep up with the winner and narrowly missed the money.
5 14 STAREILLY (CJ083) K L Chui TT Among the principals early on but under pressure to keep up at halfway, steadily slipped out of contention.
6 7 COOL CAT (CH330) G Boss -- 3Ls behind leaders in midfield until the 400 M, soon under pressure and soon yielded ground.
7 13 RICH DRAGON (CG079) C K Tong V Worse than midfield about 5Ls of pace through initial stages, under pressure at halfway, failed to make an impact.
8 2 ENCORE WIN (CH251) M Du Plessis B/TT Among leading players on far side until halfway when 1L behind, soon under pressure and retreated rapidly final 300 M.
9 11 SCOOT DA LOOT (CH274) C W Wong BO Bounded at the start losing 3Ls immediately, 7Ls last 700 M out, never on terms despite running past a few stragglers late. (See Racing Incidents.)
10 8 LUCKY MONEY (CE159) M W Leung -- Always outpaced, never better than 4Ls from the front, dropped out final 300 M.
11 9 MASSIVE STAR (CJ126) Y T Cheng -- Checked at the start, always well back at least 5Ls from the speed until halfway, eased down final furlong.
12 4 WIN-A-LOT (CJ124) G Mosse H-/XB1/TT- Checked after an awkward break losing 3Ls immediately, never closer than 5Ls to the pace after the 800 M.
13 12 SUPER HONEY (CE187) M Nunes -- On the stands' rail about 4Ls from the front until halfway, surrendered tamely once off the bridle.
14 10 CLASSA FOR EVER (CD085) S K Sit TT Prominent but furthest across the track early on, still in the front rank 400 M out but dropped out very quickly in final stages.
