1 3 GLENEALY ELITE (CJ034) B Prebble CP-/XB On fence in midfield 3Ls from pace until straight, no clear passage until the 200 M, darted through a gap to lead 50 M out and stay on well.
2 11 NEW TRIUMPH (CG105) K C Leung -- 4Ls behind early tempo in midfield and a little closer on straightening, picked up to lead 200 M out but hauled back by winner inside final 50 M.
3 9 GALLANT HUSSAR (CJ017) W C Marwing -- Towards rear at least 4Ls or 5Ls from the pace until home straight, made nice late ground down centre of the track but post came too soon.
4 6 NATIONAL GLORY (CJ176) O Doleuze -- Raced prominently but off the bridle at 500 M, 2Ls down in 5th off final turn but loomed a winning chance again at 300 M, one-paced inside final furlong.
5 12 GANBARIA (CE052) S K Sit B/TT 4-wide no cover at halfway when 2Ls off speed, pressed on to be upsides off final bend and at 200 M but ran out of puff in closing stages.
6 4 SOU MA TAM (CH253) C K Tong B 4-wide no cover disputing early pace before crossing to lead by 1L from 800 M to home turn, headed at furlong pole and tired soon after.
7 13 ACTIVE VALOUR (CG045) M W Leung B Quietly ridden early on, 3Ls off pace in midfield turning for home, effort evened out over the final 300 M.
8 7 TREASURE HUNT (CJ348) F Coetzee TT1 Crowded at start, at least 5Ls back in rear until the home straight, made a short-lived effort to dash through the field but faded inside final 200 M.
9 1 GUAN DAO (CH211) M Du Plessis -- Midfield with cover down the back straight, 5-wide (widest of all) swinging for home, never troubled the principals.
10 10 MEDALLION (CG322) H W Lai SR-/B/TT Slowest out as usual, about 5Ls back in rear until turning for home, remained a similar margin behind.
11 14 SILVER WRAITH (CE178) M L Yeung B Close to pace but wide without cover at first, 1L down in 4th turning for home out 3-wide, beaten by the 200 M marker.
12 5 CHINESE COURSER (CJ235) Z Purton TT1 Went back from wide gate, on fence 5Ls off pace in rear until the home straight, soon left behind.
13 8 VICTORY SPEEDY (CJ206) D Whyte B1 Box-seated on the rails from 800 M to final turn, found zero off the bridle and beaten before the 200 M. (Lame next day.)
14 2 TREASURE COLT (CE308) Y T Cheng -- In front rank about 1L from the speed at 800 M and same off the last bend, found nothing under pressure and eased down. (Bled.)
