1 5 SOMETHING SPECIAL (CJ014) K T Yeung SR/TT Eased to sit behind midfield along the fence, 6-1/2Ls off the leaders, benefited by the fast pace, progressed steadily 300 M whilst hanging out, just scored on the line by a neck.
2 6 MASTER DREAMER (CE293) K L Chui B Pushed to occupy a midfield position, 5-1/2Ls off the leaders 2 to 3-wide, favoured by the fast pace, made ground steadily 400 M, just beaten in 2nd by a neck.
3 8 KING OF SHAVER (CH041) B Prebble B Pushed early, insufficient speed to take a forward spot, then eased back for cover on the rails, 8Ls off the leaders, swept 3-wide at home bend, progressed steadily 250 M to grab a late 3rd.
4 7 CONNOISSEUR'S LOVE (CD234) Z Purton B Hard ridden to join the leading group, 1-1/2Ls behind the leaders, trapped 2 to 3-wide, harmed by the fast early sectionals, made early move 600 M, led 400 M, hung on until 100 M overhauled and flattened.
5 9 G-ONE LEADING (CE306) Y T Cheng -- Prominent, 3-1/2Ls off the leaders along the rails, not suited by the fast early tempo, just held ground in straight.

7 12 FISHKING EXCELLENT (CG232) M Du Plessis V Awkward away, hard ridden to take the rail and shared the lead at fast sectionals, pressured throughout, used up too much fuel in early stages, 250 M emptied.
8 1 LE ROSSIGNOL (CG196) C K Tong -- Hard ridden early to get closer towards the rail in front of midfield, then eased to sit 4Ls behind the fast pace 2-wide, held up and checked 400 M, no turn of foot when clear, flattened 200 M.

10 10 SPRING SMILES (CG269) H W Lai B Hard ridden early but failed to muster speed, favoured by the fast pace and the rail-run, however never competitive at rear.

12 3 DOUBLE PLEASURE (CD069) O Doleuze -- Pushed early but no speed, trapped 2 to 3-wide throughout, suited by the fast pace, but never better than midfield and tailed out from 300 M.
