1 7 MAGI JOY (CH056) O Doleuze B Handily placed 2-wide and 4Ls back in 5th down back straight, a little closer on straightening, stayed on well down centre of the track to lead close home.
2 10 MR FLOODLIGHT (CG257) Z Purton B Disputed pace on the fence from the get-go, 2-wide and a neck clear at 200 M, headed first by PALIO KING and the winner, regained 2nd last stride.
3 11 PALIO KING (CG073) G Mosse B1/TT Enjoyed a box-seat trail on the rails no worse than 2Ls off speed until stretch, briefly led inside final 200 M but couldn't sustain and lost 2nd on line.
4 12 MASTER YING (CB249) W M Lai B No Comments on Running information for this horse.
5 1 FASTER FASTER (CG010) F Coetzee -- Slow to break, 3-back along fence and between 4Ls and 5Ls from the front until home straight, always outpaced by most of those in front.
6 8 DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) C W Wong -- Poor start losing plenty of ground, 8Ls last at halfway, made some decent late ground in the stretch but never loomed a serious chance.
7 5 CLASSIC HORSE (CD378) H W Lai CP 2-wide and 6Ls adrift in 9th at the 800 M and not much closer spinning for home, retrieved a little late ground out wide.
8 9 TELECOM EMPEROR (CH137) K L Chui B/TT 9Ls behind in 11th through opening exchanges, still 7Ls last at the furlong marker, nearest at the finish.
9 2 MONTY (CH164) D Whyte B 3-wide no cover throughout, worse than midfield at least 4Ls behind through to the straight, offered little from then on.
10 4 LIMONCELLO (CH178) K T Yeung B/TT Held the 'one-out-one-back' position in 4th right through to the home straight but found very little off the bit.
11 3 NEW ASIA FORWARD (CH309) B Prebble B/H/TT Slowly away, at least 6Ls off pace in 10th or so at first and no better off making last turn, kept chasing the majority of the field.
12 6 SURE HERO (CG122) M Du Plessis -- 2-wide around midfield about 5Ls behind early tempo, began to yield further ground from the top of the straight, very weak and eased final 100 M. (Questioned for poor performance.)
